CP Club Outing April 2014 Pics & Vid Options

[swizz]

oh my God, we had so much fun!
It was a pleasure to meet Henry who is one hard working dude.... non-stop and he knows his stuff.
Very nice to see Pat, Woody, and Scott again... I missed you guys.
Pics and vid coming soon. The weather was really nice until about 4:00 and we finally got rained out. For me it was the first rain storm and panning of 2014, fantastic day!
I think the other guys (hopefully) may have taken a few pics too, post em up here! Yeppers, pretty sure we all scored some Gold too, which is always a nice bonus.

Thanks, Denise! I stopped having it cut after the heart attack, 'cuz I just don't care what people think about it any more. It would have been great to have you guys there, too. It was great meeting you, Henry, and I figured out what the problem was with the backflow on the trommel - TOO MUCH water, I backed down both the hopper and the tube sprayers, cleared the exit chute after every 3 - 4 shovels, and it worked just fine. Still learning, and I'm going to add some more spray holes on the tube bar so that there is some water on the exit chute, that may help a bit. Your help in the beginning helped work out some of the issues I had with the sluice - I think it is dialed in now, the cons look terrific, lots of native lead, lead shot, sinkers, etc. in the 2 pans I have sped through. I am going to class it to -12 and run it through the Gold Cube to really concentrate it. I will post pic's later this week. Woody, Pat, and Chris, it was a blast, and I really enjoyed the outing, and appreciate the help in packing up. Great Teamwork!

Later!
