Get ready for pics to come from an EPIC outing!!!! There were no CP Annual Members that took me up on the offer and that's a shame, this was an incredible outing. This will now officially be an annual event, so maybe next year.
LT Members Brandon, Erin, Mike and Mike - this was by far one of the funnest times I have ever had in my life. I'm very blessed and lucky to have spent the last 4-5 days with you, how the hell did I get this lucky?! I cannot even imagine better people to have camped and mined with, we were the ultimate team! .... and the FOOD! Oh my God. Besides the awesome mining and camping we did, I so much appreciate the help you gave me with mine tasks. The tree felling and dam improvements are especially appreciated in that regard. Yes, I know... when a claim owner says "hey, can you help me with this one thing, it'll only take about 20 minutes." Sucker! Awesome teamwork, camping, mining, and friendship. You guys are TRULY THE BEST!! Did we happen to hit bedrock? Check - 'My Mining Update' in the Protected Forum. Many pics (and maybe a vid or two) to come. We'll need a day or two to git em all up but worth the wait I believe. -------------------- /l ,[____], l---L-OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)--o-)_) BLACK SANDS MATTER!

Excluding glacial deposits, coarse Gold like that can also be an indication that it hasn't traveled far from it's source (lode) or matrix. That's enough right there to raise your heart rate... -------------------- EVIL GENIUS. JUST ASK ME.

That's enough right there to raise your heart rate... A little bit..... BUT.... since the known bedrock is sandstone.... ... one theory of mine is - Sandstone and some of the clay above it can be an indication of decomposing bedrock. This would lend me to believe that this is a pebble of a mtn compared to what it once may have been, there is no 'exposed' bedrock to speak of. The original lode or vein may have disintegrated/eroded along with the rest of the top of the mtn and lay where mother nature and gravity let it rest. This likely would have happened over a very long period of time. Pre or post glacial, I don't know. Even though it's over 9Kft, that mtn is a nub compared to what it once was I'm bettin. I'll leave this up but probably a better discussion for the Protected Forum if we discuss much more in depth. -------------------- /l ,[____], l---L-OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)--o-)_) BLACK SANDS MATTER!
