Heading up midweek, if anyone would like to join me, shoot me a message or hit me up on FB. Not sure if it'll be camping or not, doubtful. But, to say the least... it will be an all day dig-a-thon.

Sadly, I have 3-3.5 ft of over burden (that I put there meself) that I'm currently now removing... bash.gif in order to dig more or less where I started. (for that hole,... which has now gone up hill, average of 2ft deep, 8ft wide at base, 3ft wide at top... hole, with I might add, originally, 3.5-4.5ft of over burden, as I progressed upwards) But, as they sing "always look on the bright side of life, do do, do do do do," once I/we pass that... hopefully find some of "the claw's," buddies.

Headed up today (Wednesday) epic yet again, quality stuff, mostly smokey terminations. I'll have pics in a day er by the weekend thumbsupsmileyanim.gif Going up again Friday, all day. I camped (tho not really ness.) Tues after work, into Wed. Ended up getting out of camp later than if I had just gone up for the day... lesson learned.

The nice thing about these newer crystals - hardly any rust stains. What stains are there... only take 3-4 hours in SIO to clean up. thumbsupsmileyanim.gif Granted I have yet to post any pictures of my recent finds (2 weeks and counting)

Have yet to soak "The Claw," but whence I do, (lol) I'll prob let 'er soak for a few days, just to make sure it cleans up nicely.

SIOtastic! smiley-clapping.gif

P to an S, Since I'm broke till pay day - no better way spent on my day off then cleaning what I got. happy088.gif

Have you filed claim on it yet? If not..... since you are going there frequently it would save you from constantly having to check the Clerk/Recorder to see if anyone has filed Location Notice there. This would give you peace of mind that you are not mineral trespassing and you would always have your "Endless Pocket" legally.
Looks to be a worthwhile area!!! happy088.gif
Time to exercise your rights as a miner if you haven't already! CP_Member.gif

I'll have more pictures up by this weekend.

Going prospecting somewhere new for the next couple days (22nd-23rd) well.. newish (Mike S.'s neck of the woods, but within wilderness so as not to worry bout claim jumping) ((it's heavy on my mind, for that area, as it should be))

Endless, the past couple weeks hasn't been producing... well... it has been, but small, small!! terminations. Nothing like I found in the 'new' area/hole two/three weeks prior. Is what it is, ain't what it ain't. Did tho, happen to meet a couple hunters/prospectors twice (gave them a card) and ID'd some specimens they had. Hopefully, at the very least they'll join the forums en perhaps join as members at a later date.

I hope you had a great time Colin! Looking forward to your pics being posted here. happy088.gif Wilderness areas can still have claims though Colin so be mindful when prospecting.

If you were up at endless yesterday, I may have driven past your car! Was up at devils head for a bit of rock climbing instead of hounding. Was a great day to be up there for sure. In fact, I didnt make it out until a little after dark. That much sun this time of year makes it hard to leave!
