Lots of determination there. Good job Mr Two Toes.

[@ChrisRalph]

Great video. Nevada actually had some bucket line dredges and a couple of places where hydraulic mining was done. The dredges did some serious serious placer gold production in the early 1900s.

Two Toes ,i have watched your Video's 4 year's. I learn something new every time! Good job on finding that flood gold!

[@mininhawaiian2911]

That was a snow covered desert 🌵 Glad to see it cleared up and the shiny started poking through The dirt I’ll try to be ready for next years trip haha Need to get a 4x4 !!!

Great video Sir. Yea you have a 4 hour Jeep cleaning session to look forward to.

Coming soon! How to clean 40 pounds of mud off a Jeep. lol

Oh that grass, keeps us distracted from prospecting. I gotta find a kid that “wants” to work for me while I’m away! Howdy from Montana again Gary!!

[@TwoToes]

Finding a kid that can work nowadays, good luck!

[@robertg9514]

Gary, another great video! As a jeep owner, I feel your pain with cleaning up that Nevada gumbo. It’ll take multiple washes, but maybe you could do a video panning the mud from your jeep. 😊

[@TwoToes]

Funny you should say that, I have a 14-inch pan heaped full. Not sure if I'm going to do a video but will definitely put the result in a video.

[@markb9347]

@@TwoToes This would REALLY be something to see. Gold from road mud...off the vehicle... that would be amazing.🤣

[@TwoToes]

@@markb9347 Going to pan it out today, will put results in a video.

[@TomBrucker-GoldenYears]

4 plus grams of gold is a good trip. I see you added fuel jugs to the jeep, that’s a good idea for the outback ! I bet it took a while to clean off all the mud from Nevada 😂

[@TwoToes]

You got that right!, still cleaning

Thanks so much for lugging all that gear around so we can watch you,thanks for all your knowledge, I truly appreciate it,your funny 😂 and have a heart of gold 💛 NZ

[@andypandyAU.6669]

Well done, Gary. You did well compared to the others. It's great to see that you have a chance to get away with the crew. Greetings from down under 🙃. Catch ya. Cheers Andy Poverty prospecting Australia

[@josephnewman9175]

It's a cool feeling to find a piece of gold with a detector. Over a gram piece along with quite a few smaller I'd bring a mcloud and scrape some bigger area's. Also with that jeep you could drag the field 😆. Good job out there boy's. Next trip you'll probably do even better and at seventy bucks a gram it's definitely worth it. Joe gold

[@kathleentucker1238]

Fantastic gold! Glad you got to get out and enjoy the weather--- at least you got a bit of every kind of it!😂 Thanks for sharing this adventure! Gary, you are the real gold GOAT!!!

[@48thstateprospecting]

Goooooood morning two toes Well you whooped them again Gary well done looks like you’ve got that desert placer figured out pretty well I’d say 4 grams you probably just about broke even $200 for fuel and food and $225 to clean the keep lol great adventure and I’m not complaining about the lack of video it turned A ok in my book thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏼👊🏼

[@Andysfishing]

Good to see you had a good trip Gary. I started my detecting with some nice bits, the second year has been very slow. Keep swinging.

[@Notellemkrik1776]

[@DigDougDig]

Morning Gary, been there, done that! So many quarters at the car wash, luckily the attendant wasn't on duty. 😂

[@bbunch44]

Those desert trips looks amazing! I wouldn't even know where to start on planning a trip like that. Took a road trip last year late spring through Nevada, Utah, and Arizona. Nevada shocked me how beautiful it was! Mostly due to the extra precipitation I imagine. Thanks for taking us along on your adventure!

[@kord530]

Been out working in Nevada lots lately (roailroad), and I keep seeing spots out here that look so good to detect!!! Definitely hard to read though compared to the rivers over the hill. Glad to see you got on the gold! 😎

[@swamper4448]

Yeah, we had a great trip cleaning all that mud off wasn’t too much fun. Good time we have to do it again.👍🇺🇸

[@jeremylee8844]

If you ever decide to start doing excursions I would be happy to pay good money for a day just working a crevice and listening to you tell stories.

[@philbophilbo4945]

Now thats a gold adventure. What an amazing landscape. Good on you Gary

[@wilfor03]

You're actually enjoyable to watch....gold or not, I enjoyed it....

[@mightyship4014]

Two Toes, you mentioned a silver coin with the sides cut. That could be a 'Piece of Eight'. The Spanish would cut off a portion of the coin to pay for items. Most people think they were made of gold, but no, they were made of silver.

[@johnrodog]

Good afternoon thanks for the video keep them coming

[@jasond6770]

Awesome trip out to Nevada! That weather wasn't looking good to start, but it sure cleared up quickly! That was nice. Good times; good gold. Thanks for taking us along!

was out trying the nox 900 in gold mode. just junk. was down at the beach. got almost $1 and a junk earring. got $.97. be out this weekend. in the desert. swing the gold monster and the 900. some one gave up on the 900 it was $750 on craigslist. both 11" & 6". coils. have a good day.

[@DigDougDig]

Haven't had a chance to use the 900, I have a Nox 800 with the small coil it is amazing on small gold. I'm finding tiny nuggets missed by the old Vlf detectors. Going digging now.

[@ifindmetal]

Gold mode isn’t gonna like the Salt and black sand that much , it’s honestly 99 percent useless mode

[@DigDougDig]

@@ifindmetal the equinox 800 is just as sensitive as the GM. Gold mode 2 finds tiny gold at 3 inches deep. Found 1.95 grams total yesterday. The nine tiny ones weigh 2.6 grains total.

[@evankingston7639]

winners are grinners!

[@bjvoorhies]

Are those areas BLM, private area, claimed or what? Also.... Why the 2300? Light and portable? But aren't there better ones now?

[@TwoToes]

The area we were in is BLM. I think the 2300 is one of the best detectors out there, they are a bit heavy, but it folds up and will fit in my backpack. Waterproof, can work in the rain and if you drop it in the creek - no big deal. Reads off the edge of the coil and has plenty of depth, and will pick up gold smaller than you want to mess with.

[@Nvchicky]

I have to ask why you do not disclose your locations. Let’s use common sense. Would I as a watcher of your videos jump in my car and go to somewhere by the location for at the most 5 grams of gold. I think not. However, knowing the location would allow me to study the area about its history. Just seems super silly is all when you think about it logically.
