Found Gold in Creek! Mountain Camping Trip Panning

Next video on this camping trip. Built a tripod to make a wind shelter, unclaimed creek beside camp so I went gold panning. Found some small gold, no nuggets.

So high that when Steve went to bake the biscuits and he said "it's kind of dark out here" I turned the light in my room on thinking it would help. Great vids Steve.

Hi Steve, I have been having a shitty week. I came across your channel and you’ve given me some relief from the crap I am going through. Thanks and keep up the great work.

Wow! First time experience seeing actual gold being panned out of a river.... No longer mythical. Gold Panning With Steve has made it Real for me. Also LOVE the electrified fence

[@jhogan1960]

I come home from a 12 hour shift at the water plant, go outside to sit in my breezeway. Light up a cigar and escape for a while with your vids. Keep making them Steve, they are a joy. You need some Muck Boots.

Chili is always best the next day…

[@abefrohman1759]

You had me at hobo chili and biscuits.

[@rjc7289]

Steve, I actually feel a sense of peace of mind when I watch your camping videos. Seeing you commune with mother nature in such a peaceful, serene environment is very calming for my mind and soul. When you're in God's country, as you aptly put it, a peace comes over you that is borderline indescribable. The white noise of life disappears, and it's just you and the untamed wilderness. It's like a little slice of Heaven on Earth. Keep these awesome videos coming, and God bless.

[@randythompson1957]

That was a great tutorial on gold mining. Makes me wanna go gold mining with Steve.

[@danburch9989]

I can just imagine your forest service seening that thick black column of smoke and calling for fire dispatch. Fire: "Where's the fire?" Steve: "No fire. Just cooking dinner."

[@yepp5922]

Hey Steve! Im a guy who's 20 year's old living in southern Ontario. I recently watched your boondocking documentary and it has inspired me to start saving for my own van. I don't currently have anything tying me to my location so I'm free to go anywhere. I can't wait.

[@campingwithsteve]

The world is yours! I am excited for your journey. Try to get to the wilderness if possible. Van life in the city is kind of stressful at times, but if you can find a nice escape from the rat race, it will be very fulfilling. Cheers!

[@MarkMilotay]

Nicholas Corvaglia go for it while you can. You’re at a special point in your life and boondocking is a great way to figure out who you are and what you want to do in life. Don’t lose sight of your dreams as they’re harder to capture later on in life.

[@strassafrass1]

Welcome back to a fresh new episode of Hunkerin with Steve. In today's adventure, Steve wrestles a bear, wins, and takes it's gold!

Oh come on... If I wrestled a bear it would be the thumbnail :)

I have never seen someone pan for gold. Thank you for the demo! Fun and you made it look so easy. Must mean you have done that a few times before. :-)

[@thomassantucci7430]

I like when you shoot video when you're laying down in bed and about to go to sleep and you talk about stuff for a little bit and then say goodnight it just helps me think that I'm camping too

[@JoshDogMoto]

Hey Mr. Wallis I live 4 hours north of you and I see what I think is gold flakes all the time...My girl friend thinks I'm nuts... you should do a Mini series on beginner gold mining and we'll show her who's nuts lol cheers Josh

[@campingwithsteve]

All the major rivers in Alberta carry gold. North Sask, McLeod, Athabasca, Peace, Smoky, I've found gold on the little smoky actually. There is gold. You are not nuts.... get a pan and see what you can find. Actually on the little smoky I was finding about 50/50 gold and platinum back in the day.

[@jeffbury2750]

Bet you boys had some laughs over the out house Fiasco 😂 these are absolutely worth the wait!! Keep them coming! Thx for sharing bud.

[@campingwithsteve]

Well, it put a cramp on the hobo chilli recipe, because I was tempted to spray some into it for extra heat. Better judgement told me that if I had to use our one remaining can, I shouldn't be using what we have left as a condiment.

[@jeffbury2750]

Hahah. Better safe then sorry

Thankyou Steve & neighbour, I’m from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺 way down south of globe I love, love camping mainly solo, learning a lot off you about safety, when I head out it’s for three to four weeks in summer by beach these days but there are zillions of places here to camp and explore I travel between towns via forestry roads , awesome 😎 keep up good work 🌟💯🔥💯🧜‍♀️🏄‍♀️🌤🤞we don’t have bears but everything venomous and humans 🤞⚓️🏊‍♀️🤭

I'd so love to see you and Joe robanet do just a fun camp trip.....the normal camper and the bushcrafter. I think it would be fun.

[@campingwithsteve]

I've never actually talked with Joe (he's on a much bigger level than my guppy channel), but I'm subscribed to him and I think that would be a great video. Many true bushcrafters really don't appreciate what I'm doing though haha.

[@ml.2770]

@@campingwithsteve 'True' bushcrafters like to pretend they were born in a bear cave and started lighting fires with two rocks when they were 2 years old. Normal camper with humorous jabs at bushcrafters is my kind of camping.

[@justjudy7320]

Mosquito tip and yes it works in Canada and Alaska. Neutrogena light sesame oil. I had put it on after shower like always and went to a baseball game where everybody was being eaten alive. I had long pants and long sleeves with me in the truck but my shorts and tank top a Neutrogena sesame oil was all I needed to stay bug free. Then I tried it on purpose in Canada and Alaska and it worked like a charm. You mentioned in your last video that you were wondering what you're going to do I love the gold panning and prospecting and I'm going to be putting a sluice box in every Creek that I camp along. Today my van had to Max Air fans and two windows over the bed area installed. Next week is a small solar system then comes a few walls a little bit of a ceiling and I'm going to hit the road. I also purchased a small wet-dry Shop-Vac to suck the gold out of the cracks along the creek beds rather than using a silly contraption made out of PVC pipe like a syringe. I thought working smarter instead of harder make sense🎉 if it doesn't make sense it won't make dollars🎉 love you Steve

[@josephcornelius3198]

Steve been watching you for a while now, I look around my small town for places to check, but I have a concern for snakes where I live. I just am not really looking to get bit by the snakes in North Central Arkansas, a variety of different types. I really want to do a stealth camp out.
