Ghost Town Gold of Corinna Tasmania

[@richardwalsh5570]

Pieman River is the Promised land. Been travelling there since 1970. Thank you to my dad for taking us there and having a shack.

[@ramio1983]

Rob you are one of the rare, consistent talents on KZbin, we appreciate you, your insight and your island state so much :)

[@jonellery8286]

No matter how successful or unsuccessful your trip is, every single upload is entertaining from start to finish! Amazing again Rob 💪🏽

[@Acediscoface]

Another cracking upload. Love it when you start the vid reading history. Many thanks for the adventure. 🙏

[@adventuresin2220]

Love Corinna it's beautiful out there, love your stories from Tassies wild west coast. Looking forward to the next episode

[@TheAm3313]

Another absolutely mega video! We were in corinna literally a couple of days before you and seeing and hearing all your knowledge of the place brings it even more to life! Can’t wait for part 2!

[@Rob.Parsons]

Thanks Alex glad you got another appreciation for Corinna, its one of those areas that is so rich in history, I havnt even touched to tip of the iceberg with what is hidden down in those forests. :-)

[@Team_Goat]

My favourite part of tassie! Me and a mate hiked up Mt Donaldson at 2am to watch the sunrise, it was the most insane views I've experienced!

[@Loxmyf]

Another great adventure. Thanks for sharing. I stayed in room 9 when I was there in May 2021

Rob, growing up, we spent countless hours and most weekends trudging through the bush around Ballarat looking for gold. Remember one time back in the 80s, a stinking hot day I was up a fairly dry creek with a Garrett deepseeker metal detector. Dad was working away in the edge of the creek unearthing some buried sandstone bars. I wandered back to where he was working to get a cold drink and he yelked "feel the weight of this" as he threw something at me. Luckily I caught what he'd thrown - a 4 oz nugget, beautiful yellow Ballarat gold. This creek was worked by thousands of miners in the early days including many Chinese reknown to be thorough. Shows that they can still pop up and even well worked ground is always worth a look. After his find, we spent weeks there cleaning up the creek bed as well as a few test pits. We probably found another 2 ounces in much smaller stuff.

[@Rob.Parsons]

wow that is an amazing story! I don't think we even have nuggets that big anymore.

[@lindsaybrown7357]

@@Rob.Parsons I found small pieces with the detector but nothing like that. In this particular area, found lots of chinese artifacts, coins, locks and other interesting things. Finding the nugget was a bit of a curse as we spent so much back breaking time there, trying to find its cousins :(

[@becsmillie7232]

Love learning all the history of Tassie, always a pleasure to watch! Looking forward to seeing if you find his grave

[@debbiemingins4217]

Thankyou for another terrific video and we look forward to your next one 😊

It's a beautiful spot. So lovely and quiet. I drove through a couple of years ago, looks like very little has changed.

The research you put into these trips is phenomenal, thanks for sharing it with us 👍

[@fatman5514]

Thank you so so much

[@adrianfairfield5520]

Hi Rob. Great video. Those stones look like an old stone pile around a traverse station or boundary mark from a surveyor. There have been many old surveys through that area for various purposes.

[@Rob.Parsons]

ah thats a good point. I wonder where they got them from, they looked so foreign

[@jesswilson366]

Love the history you include. Amazing footage.

[@Rob.Parsons]

🙏

[@insidebendprospecting]

Awesome to hear and see some of that history, thanks Rob! Honestly that gold was pretty decent for being found in loose gravel, looking forward to the seeing the next days of the trip

[@Chucky-b7v]

Great work again, Rob.

[@SmallWonda]

3-Days ago & I only see the notification today! YT can be perplexing! Neat Adventure, Rob, I do enjoy your deep delve into the back story & History of your explorations, as to the untrained eye it all looks so pristine, but so much of it isn't, all kinds of doings have pre-empted your visit & I appreciate you educating us. The hotel looked very convivial - wonder if they mind Kelpies? Look forward to the next episode! Cheers, keep safe!

We had a shack at the heads about forty years ago. I'll ask my dad if he knows anything about it. (Unless you don't need it lol) I was going to go down the heads on the Arcadia 2 and stay down there a few nights. We used set Cray pots at conical rocks

[@Alberthoward3right9up]

There used to be a timber jetty at the mouth of the river. We had a shark cat tied up to it and had a real low tide. As it came up the edge of the boat got caught under the jetty and filled it with water. Took half the day to get all the water out and get it afloat. One back corner and half one side of the boat was under water

[@Rob.Parsons]

awesome stuff mate! yea ask your dad you never know maybe he knows about it. I think im not the first person to try to locate it though. lucky man to spend so long down there its beautiful.
