Thank you Walt. We are hoping so as well.
Here's what Howard and Robin had to say about the test dig they had. QUOTE Hello everyone, Robin and I want to thank Colorado Prospectors and Dan and Denise specifically. This was one fine dig for all that missed it. We had a wonderful time. Tired yes, sore here and there, but what a wonderful time. It was the first time for us to test our new highbanker and being new at all of this, it was great to see the abundance of color in the clean up! Unfortunately we did not take a picture of it, I was so excited to get it into a vial that I missed out. But the vial looks Good! If you ever get a chance to get ta diggin' on this site, jump on it, you will have to race us there. Thanks again for everything Dan and Denise and all your help, instruction and understanding. Howard and Robin Thanks Howard and Robin. We had a great time out digging with you two. Hope your pan had a nice smiley in it too. We hope to see everyone out there soon.

Dan I'm interested in coming down for a day of prospecting. Any details needed?

Would like to take this oportunity to thank Dan and Denise fer a great day on the dig. Finally met them after a few yrs. talkin to them in chat,very nice people and they do know all about mining,,and rocks.
We sluiced about 8 buckets and did very well. Got the gold in pics and a lot of great conversation,,,,lol. Yes,,,I take very bad pics but the gold is nice and plentiful there and access to dig is too easy. We will be going back,,,I got to get that first nugget before Dan does,,,,lol. Thanks again Dan And Denise. Bill and Sue in SD
