Gold Panning & Prospecting

[@jefftruax77]

Ok... we need part 2 asap.... left us hanging big time on that vid

[@UmmmmmmmWhat]

Yup, this video is a complete rock-tease. 😂

[@williepimpin]

Plz hit us with a second video. I need to know now

[@gingerdude94]

Great Info

[@jonathannorthup5705]

Yessir definitely need part 2 that was one heck of a cliff hanger you left us with 😂pun intended 👌

[@amandaporter1706]

Aaaaaaahhhh!!!😳 I can not believe you straight out just finished the filming right there. NOW WHAT..... 😆 thats mean

[@CoastalGardening]

I can't believe you left us hanging like that! Can't wait for part 2 ! 😎👍

[@danmarklesr6260]

Wow what an ending! You found more than you were looking for! I can't wait, but I will, for part2!

[@silango_channel]

great friend, greetings traditional gold prospectors from Indonesia

[@FabledFinds]

Jason has an incredible talent for taking selfies with majestic trees

[@laurahaaima1436]

Would love to see such majestic trees live for another thousand years.

[@GOLD_FEVER]

@@laurahaaima1436 That majestic tree is probably not much older than 200 years... They chopped 99% of the "old growth" out during the gold rush (and by the way California used to have WAY LESS trees than it does now, i know, i thought that was wierd too!)

[@laurahaaima1436]

@@GOLD_FEVER wow thats mind blowing.. o probably the removal by the oldtimers made place for new bigger growth?

[@GOLD_FEVER]

@@laurahaaima1436 TI am sure that is the case in a lot of places.

[@chuckster6513]

Hey Jason, Rather a different type of video from you, but very welcome. I enjoy information about the surface of this giant rock we live on. The scenery you are navigating is wonderful. Then you stumble upon either a natural cave or a man made tunnel/mine ? What a surprise ! I hope you get that cliffhanger video posted quickly. Thanx for taking us along on this adventure. Work Safe. Be Well Enjoy Life

[@44070Swinger]

I lived in Bellingham for years, the Cascades and the Olympic Mountain ranges are my old stomping grounds! Thanks Jason for bringing me back home to once again explore my favorite places to be.

[@DonAshcraft]

Exploring beautiful areas with significant base set of knowledge like you are, is truly a great way to go through life. Enjoy!

[@woonsockettruthseeker9009]

Recently found this channel. Fantastic content. Love and positivity from Rhode Island

[@cynthiachamberlain8985]

I love panning gold and processing my own gold ore. Very fun and profitable.🤗❤🤗

[@dartmart9263]

I really enjoyed this episode!!!

[@Greenandgold888]

Y'all are awesome! Can't wait to check out other mountain ranges and different rivers! Thanks for all your hard work and what you choose to share! Thanks man! Much love from Edmonton, Canada!

[@auguys]

Damn it Jason, I hope part 2 is right around the corner! What a great cliff hanger! Great change of scenery from the shop and furnace! Is this in the foothills of Mt baker?

[@Stand.Your.Ground.]

Of course you leave us with a massive cliff hanger!!!! JASON! ❤ more now! Pretty please! Hahaha

[@smokeyandspikeproductions]

Nice summer adventure, thanks for taking us along Jason!

[@xyzabc4574]

Always great to see ̶D̶a̶n̶ Jason out there panning a stream for gold.

[@MrKillerdillard]

I am very excited for the next video! We'll done Jason!

[@royolson4290]

Been watching your stuff for some time now. Best ending ever. Hopefully part two is quick to come. Thanks for sharing the walk through the woods. That's a great day,no matter what you find or don't find.

[@baTonkaTruck]

I love the breakdown of the historical geological processes that inform what you're doing in the here and now. Keep it up, this is rad.

[@yossarianmnichols9641]

Your channel is always the best for recreational prospecting.

[@stewartpalmer2456]

Yup, those are the mountains I'm familiar with. Just like Adams and Helens. I ran those trails with a buddy when he lived in Poulsbo. I'll will have to visit you next time I visit my daughter in Bellingham. MBMM all the way. That is unless I move back East. Keep up the nature walks.

[@Zerostar369]

Love it Jason! But Im not buying for one second you didnt know that was there!

[@me5768]

Awesome can't wait for part 2

[@jeffholmes1362]

You big tease. Great video and well done on continuing to push up the hill, bring on part 2.

[@AussieBushLawyer]

[@LivingGoodAlaska]

Awesome informative video👍I can’t wait for part two.

[@LetsGoToChurch]

[@brucegallagher6430]

part 2 needed asap 2 to 3 hour video of everything. Man just a bit younger and i'd love to be on that trip of a lifetime there exploring with Jason. Man you make me feel young again brother thanks for the great videos.

[@MakingUsThink]

Spidie on up them waterfalls for us :) Wouldn't that be fun if there were such a gadget. Good gold hunting Jason!

[@dionh70]

What a tease! Living in SoCal, seeing all that wonderful vegetation and water is a real treat.

[@derekseiders3597]

Great video Can’t wait to see what you found I really like how you prospect and read the rocks 👍

[@davidcarberry3547]

well lookie there , a gold mine , lookin forward to seeing more of that

[@iFreemind10]

Ahhhh cliffhanger and a half. Cant wait for the next one!!!

[@drewski5730]

The suspense is fantastic. Great editing. Can’t wait for next week.

[@EditsSerene]

Thanks for making these! Fun to follow the journey. Get part 2 out asap!

[@alexjband]

The perfect cliff hanger. Bravo.

[@Peter_S_]

Best cliffhanger I've seen in awhile!

[@goldensadventures1229]

Great cliff hanger well done Jason. Can't wait to see the next episode

[@haroldishoy2113]

4:57 I found myself involuntarily shaking my phone as I was watching Jason shaking his gold pan as he was clearing the last of the black sand. I got the fever man!

[@jorgev.a6125]

Nice to see you with this activity, courage!!

[@Mike-t8n7w]

You my man are getting it done! Cheers! 🍜🎉

[@waltertodd4479]

Jason, I really appreciate you sharing your prospecting knowledge and videos. Thanks also for explaining the significance of those sulfide bearing quartz veins and all that rusty mineralization, especially the orange rusty quartz you found.

[@jeremykelley4990]

What the hell - what a cliffhanger!!!!! Love your channel.

[@richardwilliams1334]

Quickest way for a BALL extraction Jason is to walk across streams on fallen trees.. Here in NZ in our back blocks one chose to walk them trees with Exstream care. We used little low top rubber gumboots back in the day and to help us climb over them wet trees or up rocky stoney rivers we often would put small horseshoe nails in the front or back of our boot, burning holes in the instep and both front and back to allow the water to escape if and when we walked these streams. Your forest of Duglas Fur looks impressive, nothing like that over here except man-made forest. Wonderful looking country you're in all the same, what happened to the wild live expected you to have meet deer by this time at least. Keep em coming love to watch these kinds of doco. Oh by the way what was that old mine like that you located near that waterfall, will there be a doco on that some time too, Kia ora ra from NZ.

[@StirlingLighthouse]

Well now. That was different and fun. Man, I wish I didn’t live in a placer poor area. It’s all hard rock mining around here. Thanks a bunch Jason 🙏 Part 2 soon please? Lol

[@illmsg77]

Beautiful place man, cant wait to see what you found!!!!!!

[@dodgygoose3054]

Seriously .... you left me on a cliffhanger.... I WANT SEE THE MINE!!!!

[@1944chevytruck]

WOW! CONGRATS!

[@TheLolaWallace]

Impressive Tight Roap walkin Jason!!! Man of Many Skills 😊 Come Back Soon, Don't leave Us hangin too long 😎✌

[@rudysmith2946]

Great video, beautiful area to work in.Thank you.

[@cardura99]

Wow that cactus is incredible! I would have grabbed that "dead stick" for certain. Ouch! Keep up the great work Jason. :)

[@stevengoldgetter]

Definitely need part 2 asap!!!

[@KD0CAC]

Waiting for PART II ;) Thanks again

[@dodgeit3014]

Can’t wait for part 2

[@DonariaRegia]

I thought that was an abandoned mine at first glance but that appears to be natural, which is even better. Right at the bottom of a waterfall, wearing down, breaking up rocks, and gravity separating. What a spot to find in such a beautiful location.

[@RuggedRunnerOverland]

It's definitely not natural...you can see what looks like a wood door right inside the adit before the video fades to black, a pretty cool spot for an abandoned mine.

[@DonariaRegia]

@@RuggedRunnerOverland Ooh I didn't see it at first but then I saw it! Frame and the door, which is ajar. Good eye!

[@timothyodonnell8591]

Jason - have you ever considered a meet-up of your PNW viewers? I'd be interested if you did.

[@dwightvoeks9970]

Props to you Jason. I've done a lot of bush whacking on the west slope of the Cascades and it can be brutal going. There's so much underbrush and the forest floor is just buried in debris. The going can get very difficult especially when you can't see where your next step will take you.

[@dfox344]

What a rush.... thank you for sharing

[@beachball99]

Thanks Jason you have the right stuff

[@GrooberNedJardine]

There will more than likely be a deposit way up the mountain above that creek . Huge trees indicate deep ground , too deep for exposed bedrock . Look for changes in the foliage , different color and different trees , Ohh i spoke to soon , looks like you just found an Adit or a Cave , yeeehaaa now i'm looking forward to the next episode , Yes . Cheers , Ned . 👍✌

[@freddking4389]

Jason, this was a great video in itself but oh Man, it is gonna seem forever for part 2 haha. Very cool. I think you may need to dredge that entire creek. There has to be good gold in it.

[@48thstateprospecting]

YEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAA eureka congrats can’t wait for part 2 you cliff hanger leaving us jerk😂😂😂 thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼

[@unlimited_1001]

Excellent

[@james.j1066]

Yep .To be continued!!! Right on . Waiting. I for one will be Waiting. Yep.

[@nocapyoulackn3594]

Brooooooo!!! omg what a cliff hanger 😭😭 can't wait to see what you found inside, I can imagine your excitement after all that uphill hiking 😂😂 great video cool to see you out prospecting clearly your pretty damn good at it 😐 awesome that your instincts took you right to where the mine was 💪💪

[@joshashby660]

Totally left us waiting!! 😮

[@alias2263]

Well we know you made it out alive thanks Jason thanks for taking us along looking forward to the conclusion 💚

[@garrybutler6136]

Great Video cant wait for the next one

[@bigizzysworld4253]

More of these videos please! Also what happened to that portal you were blasting into the side of the mountain???!!??

[@Newnumberone]

Holy Cow look at that… Can’t wait for you to show us Jason ;)

[@NewNormac]

Great hook my friend. ~Smile oN

[@chrislilly1463]

Right at the end I was hoping you took a pan from the base of the waterfall. then Bonus mine! Wicked, can't wait!

[@Zx_Wizard]

Супер! 🤝🙂 Ждём продолжения! И будьте осторожны там!

[@orsud1890]

Salut mon ami, très belle vidéo ✨✨👌

[@1sweetree]

Great personality. Very enjoyable, thanks for posting

[@joellangen1025]

This is your best video yet. Love the explanation. Damn it, Jason, leave us with a cliffhanger. Can't wait for the next video. Was that a mine you found?

[@phoule76]

action, adventure, danger, and even a cliffhanger!

[@tdiron5277]

Nice vid 👍 Great teaser ending! Well done sir ! 😎

[@racheldavey2207]

Iam impressed with the log balancing!

[@Robert-ys9zy]

Got me !! I can’t believe I gotta wait!

[@typicalrockhound9887]

You should make this a new boots on the ground prospecting series ⛏️👍 I enjoyed watching this Keep on giviner man .

[@alphabror835]

As you were showing those samples early in the video I noted that they were quite jagged, river rocks are tumbled and round. so I was thinking you'd come across an old mine sooner or later depending on how far you went and yep... you found it! great video Jason. Thank you for sharing your passions, knowledge, and adventures. This community is blessed to have content creators like you.

[@HansFormerlyTraffer]

Jason is Chasin...lol We all hope that old mine is going to be a jackpot for you.

[@Zimgirgaz]

Beautiful back country!

[@RuggedRunnerOverland]

What a cliff hanger! Looks like quite the awesome find there at the end, can't wait for the next video as I'm a sucker for a good mine exploration! Here's hoping it's actually open and worth exploring, would be a major bummer if it faces out after 20 feet or so.

[@clintfisher]

Love your vids Jason! I'm down here in Maple Valley, WA, otherwise, I'd be hitting you up for some group adventures! GREAT PSA about Devil's Club - that stuff is NO JOKE!

[@markbrown6236]

Nice teaser at the end. A different video subject, and I like it.

[@John-ir2zf]

Gotta remember Jason, those waterfalls are clear exposures of bedrock, get close and examine them to see what type of rock is where, that will help sort out what you cant see because of the forest vegetation.

[@npcknuckles5887]

More panning skills/techniques videos pls :)

[@takinastabatit]

Am an amateur hobbyist in the Grande Ronde Valley in Oregon. If you ever head this way, let's go get our pans wet!

[@michaelpass2176]

Makes a great tea.😊😊

[@thecanadianhillbilly]

great video keep them up from bush to brick would bee cool

[@coyotelarry]

Holy cow is right...lol can't wait for part 2...

[@TIPPYtoeup]

Awesome ending Jason. Can’t wait for the follow up!! 🎉

[@TIPPYtoeup]

Hey Jason just sent you some pictures of the ones I found last year. There’s no record of them that I can find dating back from 1800, when BLM started making record in Idaho. Look for the email that has a first name. Last name

[@deadmanwalking6342]

1:05 Traditionally, the charcoal from the stalks is still used to make ceremonial and protective face paints, and among the Ditidaht and neighboring groups, it was equally significant to red ochre as a symbolic link to the spirit world. Native American peoples such as the Tlingit and Haida have used the plant as traditional medicine for ailments such as adult-onset diabetes, as well as rheumatoid arthritis.[8] The plant has been used ceremonially by the Tlingit, Tsimshian, and Haida people residing in Southeast Alaska and coastal British Columbia. A piece of Devil's club hung over a doorway is said to ward off evil. The plant is harvested and used in a variety of ways, most commonly as an oral tea in traditional settings, but also poultices and ointments.[9] Native Americans also dried and powdered the bark for use as a deodorant[10] and used the mashed berries to clean hair.[11] Because devil's club is related to American ginseng, some people try to market the plant as an 'adaptogen'. The plant has been harvested for this purpose and sold widely as "Alaskan ginseng". Despite some morphological similarities between the araliaceous members Panax ('true' ginseng), Eleutherococcus senticosus ("Siberian ginseng") and devil's club, the different genera are chemically diverse.[citation needed]

[@MrJayrodge]

Wow, what a great ending! Now where's part 2?!

[@brucevanderzanden9638]

You’ll have to check that opening out Jason!

[@jaymortensen642]

This was one of your best videos can't wait for part 2, you ever take rocks you find in the river home and crush them and run them across the table ?

[@vicferrari9380]

I'm sure he must. His curiosity must drive him to not leave a sleeping room lie. 🤠

[@goldpanr]

CAN'T WAIT!

[@brentsmith981]

I dig the info you share but especially the hardrock mining
