This is my first annual year end gold total weigh in video. I pan my tool belt, backpack, weigh all the lead and weigh all the gold from 2024. Hopefully you guys like this video even though it is different. This might throw off the algorithm, but it felt like a must do.

    Gaia GPS ( if you do not know) has a great app for exploring. You can record hikes and different adventures then overlay older maps. It amazes me recording a hike on a river using a current map and then overlay the 1900 topo map and then see the different topography of that era. Now if gold was easily finable we all would be rich, but may be those spaces where there is no gold are just changes in the course of the creek over time. On that app you could pin point each of the finds marking them with GPS and record the overall hike at the same time to later review it. If you then overlay one of the older topo maps (1900,1930,1960,1980 etc.) to that recorded path/finds you might see a pattern. May be as simple as the path of creek changed over time, which they do, and chasing the older path could prove productive in the areas you determined unproductive following current creek path. The old creek could be 50-100 yards left or right of current path and/or 50-100 feet above current path. If this proves true I want the third nugget found using this tip and a vanilla crème filled donut... :) Enjoy the videos!

      @@ryanlane1651 I love it! The main benifits over the gold monster that ive noticed are, folds up into backpack, reads off the side of the coil which is huge for crevices in corners, coil size lets me cover ground 3-4 times faster. Downsides are NEED HEADPHONES, heavier and more liability if you break it and its not under warranty. I bought mine second hand and broken so it was relatively cheap. had to fix it tho
