If you ever wanna go 4wheelin out here let me know. Looks like you got 33's on that thing? I see a Warn winch.

Write me at webmaster@rcm-enterprises.com when you get time.

It is "Something that has to be removed to get down to what you are interested in". In this case, it is just loose material that has washed down and collected in the area that would be covering the bedrock. It could also be used to describe material covering a vein at the bottom of a shaf...

Is "overburden" a prospecting term? I'm not sure what it means.

Great Photo! Nice pattern on him too! Quite different than what we see on "Fang" around here. Jim DesertCruiser and Iggy are the ones with all the luck (or skill, I should say) getting shots of wild life. I just mostly carry my camera around all the time. Back to the gold thing and detect...

Don't count on "Fang" being Dormant EP! If you get a nice sunny afternoon, warm enough for you to pull your coat off, he could come out and do a little hunting for food. I have seen them out in December here in Arizona. They do not go into a deep hibernation for the whole winter like a be...

When you do buy a detector, buy the one in the link. It's what I was going to recommend before I even clicked the link to see what it was. I zeroed in on the Gold Bug II metal detector simply by searching out customer reviews, which were overwhelmingly positive. Many detectors got poor reviews. I p...

Find a place where the bedrock is exposed and dig out the crevices. If you don't find any gold that way...

Hi, my first post here on the treasure hunting forum. I recently bought a canyon in the Hueco Tanks are east of El Paso. I'm putting up an image cut from Bing 3-D aerial map to give you an idea of the lay of the land. My property is the area to the left of the red arrow all the way to the top of the...

I work for an irrigation district, and the guys who know about the canyon want to come out here and shoot ...

Over the summer, one of my neighbors killed a Gopher snake in his yard! The next day his wife called me over to view the body....I have to shake my head in disgust. How can people who hunt, fish, hike, and live in the outdoors not know how to identify venomous snakes from nonvenomous snakes? It's b...
