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 .

I think it's odd the state owns this chunk of land . the state can call it whatever they want,but its still public land (you own it!)and some have special restrictions on what can be done with the land in question! some land when donated to the state can have special restrictions placed on the by the donator person,and these restrictions must be respected! all the federal gubermint/state gubermint/local gubermint does is manage these lands for us! |
