Hello, everybody welcomes back to Colter and Zaves awesome adventures in finding gold! I had a subscriber comment that there are not many as many youtube videos on finding gold in Idaho. So that is what I thought I would do. I found Prospector Jesse’s video and want to pick up where he left off. Today I will be talking about southern Idaho and the Snake River canyon. First, I will be going over some basic geology in the area and talk about the Yellowstone hotspot that has been bringing the gold to the surface. Then I will speak of the great Bonneville flood, another great event that riped a gouge through the Snake River Plane and left giant piles of gravel in its path. We will look at google earth at a place where these events cross paths, and finally, we will visit the location and take a few samples.
how about new york ? make a video like this ill do some prospecting with video upstate ny albany area ,,, i wanna open the map for ny even though they say you cant keep it it will still be cool knowing where the gold is ,,, ive found a little here and there already gained a sub thank s prospectors theory Facebook group for helping fellow prospectors find each other ,,
There are bench placers up in the walls of the canyon that are very rich in superfine gold
… Very rich !
Cool just found your channel! I’m in Boise but only until the end of summer then I’m moving to the east coast. I do prospecting and rock hunting and metal detecting!
First off man. Way to go on your invention that is sweet. Second right on on getting out there and digging in idaho. I’m right up the road. Heavy pans my friend
Great information on finding gold in Idaho it looks like a fun day on the river. Cant wait for that magic bit to arrive.
thats pretty dope
I come from the east fork river in southern California I moved to nampa n I’m dying to sluice a river
How or where can I get a magic bit at ??
sweet like the video man I am near swan falls I’ll go down there this week and give a couple of tests pants I just started out panning myself so hopefully I find some gold
Nice place – I’m also in the Boise area, I’m just starting to prospect and have only found a couple specs so far, so glad to see some history of why there’s gold in the area and what to look for in the gravel banks

Hey did you keep going to that spot or move on? I’m working down in twin an thought about trying that spot. Worth it?
Can you drop the coordinates to where all those big boulders are?
Very cool,in Boise a few more days it’s buetiful! Subbed
Is this public land? Anyone can pan there?
Ya my dog ran off!
Great info and well done. What research application are you using? Looks pretty comprehensive. Always looking for more efficient ways to research.
Awesome video man, yea everyone stay tuned, we got some really exciting prospecting videos in some historic gold mining country here in Idaho and maybe will find some of that golden shiny. Just have to wait till the snow melts. 🤠
Nice gold recovery. I was just wondering is that place Public Access or do you have to have a claim there? In Washington I had a really good spot I could go to and find tiny nuggets and some fine gold. But here in Idaho I’m new to this area. This gives me ideas on where to go. Would love to find a public access area I could go to. Cuz I don’t have a claim yet.
Did you ever follow up with video 2?
Awesome location
Good morning
How about Owyhee River below the dam for gold?
I like that invention. Nice.
Looks like you’re having a lot of fun and making a little money doing it to
Au-some man ,excited to demo the one you sent me up here in ice cold Canada
Way cool dude
I’m sold!
Nice video! If you are in boise, the Idaho gold prospectors association has a meeting April 13th. You could definitely sell a few of those magnetic drill attachments…super cool. Hopefully I can pick your brain, I go to a local claim near Centreville (miss lucy), getting a little bored of that spot and would love to venture out. Anyways, great vid, keep them coming
Why would you presume that was an illegal mining operation ? It may have been private ground at one point or it may have been a permitted operation if it’s public ground.
Neat drone shot of the bruneau canyon overlook!
Great video. I was wondering where you got your map information? I’ve been trying to find the information or the program that shows where the mines were, the formations, the contacts, who owns the land, etc. I saw one video where the guy used google earth, but some kind of layer that showed that information. Where do I find that? Thanks!
@17:21 Getting ready for war with Iran? HAHA
Your channel is looking good, AUsome!
awesome video making skills too ,,
This guy!, and his Boyfriend .. Make me sick..
I just agreed to purchase 2 50 acre lots in remote Lehmi salmon nat forest. Both have several mines in them. I know nothing about mines and the potential of epa issues. Can you direct me to info or give me a quick overview of what to be concerned about? I want the land for its land not the mines but I dont wabt to be stuck with a toxic clean up.
Are you into hard rock mines I have a claim I would love to have someone look at
