Hello all,

I've been digging for some info on this. I like to take my family to spruce grove campground for camping and gem prospecting. I was wondering if you can run a dredge or high banker in the Tarryall creek near the campgrounds?

Tarryall Creek is virtually all private property along it's length. The exception are the two campgrounds adjacent to the lake. Unfortunately both those campgrounds are withdrawn for the USFS Recreation areas. If you want to look up the details of the withdrawal the two at Spruce Grove are PLO 5121 and PLO 2589.

Your best bet on Tarryall is to locate a kind private property owner who would allow you to run a dredge or hibanker.
