Here's my cleanup from the ranch.... pretty good. This spot is on NFS so I'll probably have to get back there at some point for more sampling.

Thanks Mike! That was from the same crick that you and your brother worked with me, except about 10 miles upstream from where we were. I dug that concentrate about two years ago, it's just been sittin here all this time. I remember seeing that flake when I sluiced that concentrate and knew I'd see it again when I eventually did a cleanup.

Great finds and pictures Chris!
 Nice Garnets, I'm such a kook that the Garnets make me drool more than the Gold.
