April Adventure Options

[marntson]

So I have finally decided that I will be taking the entire month of april off. Might not have an work anyway so it wont be a big deal. My prospecting buddy (Patrick) and I are headed to Arizona for at least 2 weeks for some detecting maybe drywashing/sluicing. We haven't fully planned our trip yet but will be starting in Stanton they have an outing that weekend. We are hoping to find some decent areas to stay for about a week at a time around there.
After that we were thinking of headed to northwest Arizona/Nevada for another week. Then finishing up the trip in Colorado, most likely SW and then on to the BV/Gunnison area.
Patrick has been to AZ once an I have never been, so I was thinking maybe some of you would have some tips for me. Exact locations of gold would be great but general tips on things to look for and survival would be handy also.
Also, I was thinking maybe some of you would want/be willing to join us when we hit Colorado. A local guide for the Colorado areas would be awesome, and I think you would find we are hard working and very enthusiastic diggers.

I will be posting more for this trip as we figure it out, and hope to have a final report from the entire thing for you all when we get back.
