Exploring a new creek

[@MericaAdventures]

I learn from your videos every time I watch them. Gary thanks again 👍😊🇺🇸🍀⚒

[@rayluc100]

Your knowledge for reading rivers and terrain is impressive. It seems if there is any gold around you can find it! I have learned much from you...thanks.

[@bobedwards8896]

exactly, 2toes has inspired many to get into gold prospecting! always much to learn from him.

[@insolentstickleback3266]

I like your plan B for that creek, you and Jeff team up on that steep little rascal! Thanks for the nice trip into the hills to brighten up a Monday morning!

[@Smithsgold]

I see a long Hike in my future !!!!

[@MaceFXE]

As always, a wealth of knowledge. Thanks for sharing with us!

[@Smithsgold]

I’m ready when you are it’s going to be another hot Tuesday !!!! I’ve been wanting to check out the lower part of that creek

[@Smithsgold]

Don Forum that’s funny we talked about doing just that last summer !!!! But I could give 10 pounds back and be ok too !!!!!

[@Smithsgold]

@Don Forum Sounds good !!!! thanks

[@jimgriffiths9071]

You got the creek bed, he's doing the hillside.....I'm betting on you Jeff.

[@Smithsgold]

Jim Griffiths we shall see !!!!

[@wherewomenwander2921]

Thank you for your time making this video.

[@carvinlambert6899]

Thanks Gary, for what you do.... it's always a good day when you pop a video up..I watch at work, then again back at the house, (Same Day Pard!) lolol !!

[@markthomas4083]

Mr. Gary has a great adventurous spirit. Always the teacher, what a cool dude! Wish I could go along w him.

[@FlashInYourPan]

Excellent Gary, Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us all and from the looks of that area I can understand why you would enjoy it even if you were not on any gold... Thanks again and be safe out there.

[@TwoToes]

I took a long lunch and just enjoyed sitting there for a bit!

[@getdownanddirtyprospecting]

Always good to try these new creeks the gold is just a bonus cheers Glenno.

[@revizzy]

Love the video (as always) Gary! I love that you hike to all these remote places and bring them to us! I go out regularly to the Sierra's and when I see how steep the hill is to the creek, I usually back away as I am afraid of killing myself! Any chance of a video on how to "safely" hike up and down to a creek?

[@pappawheely]

Your love of the mountains and sharing the beauty and the hunt... Is beautiful outstanding video thank Q

[@1000000trs]

Thanks for another fine and expertly informative trip into the hills.

[@cheaplaughkennedy2318]

Beautiful Place Gary , that scenery and gold finding go right together and equal a great time. 👍

[@pessimisticpianist582]

Thanks for the new vid, your the best! I learn so much from you, and the information could come in handy one day.

[@shanemcintosh6155]

Hey Gary I just wanted to thank you for your great Channel. You're definitely my favorite Channel on KZbin. It is the best learning tool I have found. I live in Cali too, you seen like a guy I would like to hang with sometime. Thanks again!

[@MrDazP1adv3ntures]

Hi Gary, I have a lot of respect for you with the knowledge you share and the efforts you put in to create these informative videos. Cheers fella.

[@GramCanyonSam]

Hey gary hope all is well with the family and stay safe yourself and thank you for the video!

[@2Qwk2C]

Like you said Gary, what a way to spend the day, especially where it's so pretty! Absolutely gorgeous. Any gold you found, or going to find is just a bonus. Why don't you take a drone next time you go up there and then you'll be able to get a good look at the lay of the land without exhausting yourself. Cannot wait til you get back up there, there's adventures to be had for sure :)

[@officialtassieboysprospecting]

Nice mate thanks for sharing I love exploring new creeks 👌🏼

[@jeffreyrobinson3782]

Thank's Gary the scenery is awsome learning heap's looking forward to the next video

[@californiamotherlodeprospect]

You sure have some rich ditches up there! Looks like fun Gary thanks for sharing!

[@davidmiddlebrooks929]

LOL, Gary, your fine flour gold is more than we found in a weekend. I carry tweezers, if that helps you understand the average size I have found so far. Still learning, so I'm still watching! :-)

[@MarvUSA]

A new creek. Your off to a good start. I'm glad you aren't giving up on it yet. It's fun watching your video's, you do all the walking and hiking for me. :-)

[@estarszak]

I think i recognize that flour gold. lol I can appreciate the steepness of that canyon. It is indeed tiring. peace out.

[@josephkolodziej3748]

Keep em coming. Your knowledge is truly next level. 👍😱

[@dagreynolds8013]

Thank you for invaluable information! Have found our first gold. Pretty cool!

[@stevenhigby3512]

It sure is amazing how much gold is still out there to be found.

[@erlingharaldsen1684]

Hi Gary, I believe that you can find gold in thin air! Can't wait until your next video. Thank you again for the adventure, always fun!!!

[@danzoller7397]

Fun stuff!

[@TheFudgeStop]

another great video sir. prospecting can be just as fun as mining. be safe and heavy pans.

[@pirateprospecting707]

Great video. Thanks for the education as always! All that hiking keep ya young. Lol

[@ferdburphel2076]

I wish you were my history teacher......I'd have paid way more attention! To be continued.......

[@archerydogg]

It is a beautiful place. Great video.

[@watermain48]

Thanks Gary.

[@pulesjet]

I'm not able to do hikes like that any more .... Keep at it as long as ya can. Sir ! Hell I don't think my lungs would be functioning at altitude any more.

[@tdiron5277]

@pulsejet There are lower elevation spots on the Yuba river you can access easely ....I went when I first started the Gold is not as good .... however it is there. Gary is a goat @ elevations of 2000ft to his best spots @ elevations of 4500 to 6000ft high . The High Sierra forest has been his playground for a lot of yrs . Start low.I am 63 yr old gray bearded cancer survivor been watchin Gary for a few yrs and finally pulled the trigger last yr .... no regrets . Good Luck and C-ya out there someday !

[@pulesjet]

@@tdiron5277 Good Stuff from you Sir ! I won't be making it to anyplace near that. I'm down by the Dotted line here in Southern New Mexico. Cracks me up. The gold Gary calls Crumbs and Powder are what we call Pickers and Nuggets here . LOL Yes, I enjoy his videos. I enjoy his Candor and Demeanor more then anything else. The guy is quite down to earth.

[@BeefyPrepperthegolddigger]

Great video...I really enjoy your teaching it helps me a lot in my prospecting

[@FlourgoldWizards]

A true wealth of information!!!!! Thanks Gary 👍🍺🇺🇸

[@markopittman2833]

just getn out in to gods beautiful country is a real blessing , i am in total agreement gary , the shiney is the bonus that keeps us coming back, thankyou once again for a great video.

[@herby375]

Great Vid Gary, That detector would have been handy.

[@donaldking8288]

Your so lucky to be in a region like that !!

[@mininhawaiian2911]

You gotta love how beautiful those small feeder creeks are ..... as soon as that water drops it seems like a great spot to get deeper in.... great tip on using old mines to locate gold bearing creeks :D I hope I find a rich feeder creek someday

[@kennethclark5636]

Thank you for the wonderful video and the awesome scenery!! My Pastor and his group will be up in your area (head waters of the Yuba river) in mid-July. He wants to do some panning while he is there. I told him to watch your videos, since you're from around there and that you've been prospecting for over 50 years. Is there any advice you could that I can pass along to him?

[@joshortiz1576]

Rig up a strap system for the metal detector =) I would love to go up in the area some day!! It was beautiful!!!

[@mikeobrien4437]

You will find the big stuff with all your knowledge !

[@NuggetHeads]

Great scenery and good video. Keep up the good work!

Nice work man 👊🏻🤠👍🏻

[@waynetolver-banks4362]

Another good video. You must be fit hiking a hill like that. You could do a challenge with Jeff to see who gets the most gold in the day.

[@TwoToes]

I'm still trying to get rid of the extra pounds I put on this winter, a little more hiking is needed!

[@Smithsgold]

I’m ready !!!!!

[@TwoToes]

@Smithsgold Starting today - last week doesn't count!

[@Smithsgold]

@@TwoToes last week was epic !!!!

[@joshsmith9558]

Man I need to visit you one day. No gold in my area. I'd happily be a pack mule for the chance to prospect with you

[@tdiron5277]

@Josh Smith ??? 23,000+ subscribers ....lol !! It’s a long line sir ...

[@Smithsgold]

He does have a good last name !!!!!

[@daddywarbucks6845]

You might want to do some sampling at the old mine's and check around for exposure for possible prospect . Looks like good gold in the area never know what the old timers over look.

[@TwoToes]

That hard rock mining is to much like real work for me!

[@daddywarbucks6845]

@@TwoToes 😂I hear ya love your videos

[@allanturpin2023]

The first part of your two part mission is legal in CA now... haven't done that in years though.

[@rbolen8380]

?Other then something else to have to take with, would it be ideal to take a good rope for going up and down.? I'm really wanting to do some hunting and finding gold. But my friend says" it's bad time of year. To wait a couple months." I'm from w.v. I've lived in the same place in slo county CA for the last 11 year's . and it's been NO fun .with these videos I think I got a nice chance to make something happen to better my situation. Not that I'm complaining about it, thank you for the knowledge and wisdom that you've shared

[@clay0110]

Your videos are always great, my husband and I watch you every week. We are GPAA members and love learning. We are headed to Northern California in the middle of September to pan and go crevicing at a few claims. Would you be interested in possibly meeting up with us and teaching us a few things?

[@codymackniak6328]

Another great video 👍👍keep up your search for the golden nugget 👍👍

[@greedygringoprospecting6941]

does the quartz have to have a lot of rust (from pyrite) on it to bear gold I was in the san bernadino national forest and the milky quartz is all over the place oh that's a river gary I was at a creek I just stepped a crossed it decent black sand when I dug out from the side just sample pan (the desert) doesn't have much for streams ,creeks

[@dennisandreas7641]

I have a whites tdi pulse scan could u do a info clip on it to understand the proper operation is it similar to the TDi gold master 3

[@blueleadgoldproductions133]

That coarse piece hadn't traveled far. In polite society coarseness is frowned upon. In the world of the gold prospector coarseness equates with character. Love that coarse gold.

Maybe it's just my computer, but I've had a hard time hearing you the last few videos. Also, maybe a better plan for the spot would be to send Jeff down to pan while you sit in the truck.

ty 2toes does the old washes have gold I tested an old wash n found micro specks did old timers let flower go??

They concentrated on the best producing areas. What wasn't enough gold to pay for them, is good for us, we aren't making a living off the gold, they were.

Can you tell me where are you live in which state

[@TwoToes]

Northern California

[@justanotherfishingchannelMG]

Hope your arm is doing better

[@cacogenicist]

Ah, the Sierra batholith -- proper high mountains made out of good old grantic plutons. Our high Cascades up here in Oregon are just some dang ol' stratovolcanoes -- basalt and basaltic andesite, and crappy tuff, and such. I suppose millions of years from now, when the Cascades are dead, the mountains will get worn down to their magma chambers, and with any luck, some force will act to shove those plutons up into the sky. Until then, gold hunters are stuck with the Western Cascades.

Needed hip boots

[@kittygonzalez2827]

You call that a creek? I call it a river! I never understood why Dinky Creek is considered a creek, either! It’s not dinky, and it’s also, in my mind, considered a rushing river! I live on a creek in Lake County......it rushes during winter storms, and in the summer, it’s still quite cold, but the only way to cool off! The entire area has really eroded since the Valley Fire burned 1/3 of Southern Lake County, stealing the lives of a couple of our neighbors and multitudes of wildlife, but the rattlers and a small population if Deer still consider it home. I often wonder with all of the iron and sulfur if there is any gold in there! We have a couple of really old mines nearby, but I am too old to trek into the backlands alone. However, some of the Hot springs are right on the way according to the maps. I’m right in the area of the Geysers and we have our own daily quakes, so being in a mine might not be the wisest choice!

[@GoMommaGo]

Ever see anything cryptozoological up there in the Sierras?
