To get started, hopefully rock hounding to start, just to be clear, pretty much any light green area on BLM map is a safe place to start. Then, check LR2000 - best effort checking for current claims. Then map out a spot and go. Any other advice ?

Bring some binoculars if you have them, and watch out for mine claim markers. Have fun!

In all my 'wanderings' , I've yet to come across markers, as outlined in pg9 of MiningClaims pdf ( or 3832 section ). And the other pdf is quite handy - Mine pkt 2014. I think it's odd the state owns this chunk of land .
