I think I recall reading somewhere about size regulations pertaining to prybars or spuds used for the purposes of small scale mining in Colorado (statewide?).
If my memory serves me well (rarely), I think it was "no longer than 48 inches", is this correct? thanks -------------------- /l ,[____], l---L-OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)--o-)_) BLACK SANDS MATTER! Very Happy CP Lifetime Member CP CORE TEAM Referral Code CE213 |

If it's a hand carried piece then I would not be concerned about it we've used our 6ft rock bar many times in the field although we dread even taking it out in the field because it's so dang heavy to haul out.  Can't find the heater switch on it either for turning down the heater!!  Talk about a work out.  CP -------------------- CP-Owner/Administrator
