Description

There is usually pretty easy access to these rivers and streams,
sometimes even right off the road, but be aware that the best gold is not usually found within easy access to heavily travelled roads.
You can expect that you won't be the first person to try their luck at that spot.
Indeed many of the best strikes of the gold rush era were right in this very same area.
Thousands of modern day prospectors (weekend warriors) annually try their luck in this area too.
Don't be discouraged though, all the gold is not gone!
