Iam in North Dakota sir any chance visit you
Very good take for a short run Alan . That looks like a nice place to work on that shiny . Congrats on the soar body parts , the sluice worked perfectly. See you on the next one . Cheers
That area looks awsome. Looks a lot like idaho. Those rocks roll right off that mat. Awsome stuff. Glad the snow is gone and u can get out and prospect again. Got the sluice in the mail. Thanks brother. Those are some nice size pieces of gold u are finding. Enjoy it while it’s nice. Pretty soon it will be a hundred degrees out lol. Thanks for sharing brother
Lucky you still to much hazard were I’m at I’m stuck crushing winter rock the hard way (🗜️ grips) https://youtu.be/J-IL8J3cc3U
So you said no digging in the creek. Can anyone even use a suction dredge in Montana?
Nice clean up Alan.
Nice start , I hope , To a great season , Wish I was there.
Hi Alan, great video and the gold was nice. Looking forward to more videos on this claim. Sluice box worked very well.
Good to see you alan! I’m going to review your old video on how to make a homemade high banker this year, thank you for that
Looking at how you have to load the sluice if you took a metal garbage can lid cut slot for intake of water an line up cut for matirel, you could shovel onto lid an walk back
Where ya been alan
Sorry Al. Haven’t been able to watch to much YouTube viewing..Got family problems to deal with.
Definitely some nice gold for a short run mate, great work 💪
Hey bud, you doing alright haven’t seen anything from you in a month?
Years ago I was up in the hills off hungry horse dam stopped on a creek that fed into the lake at a culvert few miles up parked went to work went back up to the jeep looked across the road on a tree sign said you have entered grizzly bear country keep alert of your surroundings. Went back to the stream went to work all the time couldn’t hear anything but the stream. After about 45 minutes of working not a spec in the pan my Native American kicked in the hair on the back of my neck and whole body stood up I got the Willie’s and packed up and to say on my last trip back up to the jeep I heard a bear. Lol even tho I was packing I’m glad I left . When it’s just you alone it’s hard to keep alert and work when your on a stream making so much noise that’s all you hear. People don’t realize Montana is still the old West and still wild only thing close is Alaska. Been hunting and had deer come closer and be curious of what you are they had never seen a man probably before in their life. Peaceful quiet country but sometimes people forget we are food on the food chain as well.
Way to go Alan. The claim looks really good. A true prospector, out the first day of the season. Thanks for sharing this adventure. Nice color in that second spot.😎⛏⛏🔥🔥
What is your goal for this season
That matt of yours looks like it runs well! I am in black bear and cougar country and it’s important especially in the spring to be super aware and have some kind of protection. My wife and I had a black bear episode a couple years ago. Thing was grumpy and hungry, after that we bought a trailer for the first time🤣 Love your ingenuity Alan!
Hi Alan 😊. I’m from Kazakhstan 👋
Love my hobby miner sluice box was on a job the other day and the roofers were putting a rubberized roofing material on a flat roof building it’s slightly texturized for footing grip when it’s wet but not very thick so I was thinking of adding it to the flare for an indicator Mat it should hold the gold long enough so that I can see it and I love seeing those go into a sus saves me time from having to test or clean it out to see if I’m on the gold congrats on getting back out can’t wait to see more thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏻👊🏻
Another successful invention 🍻! Great job Allen 🤝…your payment is gold!
Awesome start to the season Alan …. Thanks for sharing again.
Great job all around fam. Keep on having fun getting that au & living the dream fam. Gold squad out!!!
Excellent endroit bravo magnifique trouvaille ✨✨👌
Awesome video! What are the rules and regulations in Montana for running a Highbanker near a creek or river?
Man that is great. Would love to come up there my battery powered trommel and run some of that dirt. My 22 year old grandsons love going out and do the digging for me. Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming
Nice job. Question, where did you get your sluice? I have looked and have come up short
Looking great. Keep it up!
Great job Alan. Hopefully Bob and Debbie had a great take as well.
Nice gold, beautifull day👍⛏
Hey Alan, I live in Gold creek. If you take folks out to dig and pan, my wife and I would love to.
Congrats Alan on your first official day out prospecting. And found some color to boot.
Great start. Really looking forward to digging with you all. I’ll see you Saturday the 23rd. Thank you Alan
you’ve been busy designing! welcome to springtime:)
Hi Alan, my son lives near Hamilton and was wondering if you had any suggestions as to where on the Bitterroot that we could take ourselves (when I come to visit from the California Peoples Republic) and the grandsons to find some color. Thank you sir and be well.
Omg that’s amazing. Me and my wife and 2 kids are spending the hole summer in Montana where should we start, any suggestions
G’day Alan. Always enjoy seeing what you’re making & trying out. Just thinking how many colors you’d get out out of that hole if you were using a 10" or 12" sluice and your back would love you for it!
cheers
It’s exciting to see you up in the hills! Happy panning. I’m excited for the end of April!
Looking good!! Man I wish I’d drove up to dig with you guys instead of beating myself up hauling firewood! See you in a couple weeks to setup the water!!
Im glad you finally got out !!!! Nice day too , great start Alan
Very good Alan, very good
Nice haul for your first day of the season! I guess it’s time for you to receive some gas $$$ for your efforts! Another deposit will be going out in the mail on Saturday! AW, besides the bears, maybe the snakes are waking up too?
What a great way to start the season! Nice job Alan!!
