I had a heart attack 12 years ago. Diet and pacing yourself will do wonders for you. The key is not trying to see what your limit is. Keep everything in your comfort zone. Hydrate !!!! My wife and I Love your great videos. Thank you for your efforts to bring us knowledge and wonderful entertainment.
@@Danhurd I've had friends and colleagues have heart attacks at young ages, where the underlying cause was Sleep Apnea. Using a CPAP fixed them right up. Perhaps you need a sleep study? Many people use CPAP machines, even if it's just to reduce or prevent snoring, but they find that it help their overall health, even their memory and reasoning. .. . ..Perhaps you already know all this, but I'm throwing it out there just in case. Kindest regards.
Dan you Proved it . You proved it .. GOLD IS REALLY WHERE YOU FIND IT .. NO RHYME OR REASON GOLD ROLLS WHERE IT WANTS TO AND SETTLES WHERE IT WANTS TO .GOOD JOB👍
After suffering bad angina and a real slowdown in my ability to work as a carpenter, I had quadruple bypass surgery. Recovery was slow, but I got most of "me" back. I hope that you can find the right treatment and carry on with the same physical enthusiasm as your mental enthusiasm. You are a joy to watch and I hope you stay healthy and prospecting for many many years to come.
A day on the river is better than a day in the office. Even if you didn't find as much gold as you wanted to, you still got to spend quality time with your family and that's the best treasure in the world.
The beauty of the Gold Hog multiSluice is that it’s designed to run dry dirt. The water flows back over itself at the top in a very turbulent area and completely saturates the dirt with water. So you’re not losing anything. 👍 I encourage you to watch the GoldHog video about the multiSluice and he explains everything. It’s for this same reason why I bought that sluice system.
I love my multi-sluice and I agree with you on the flow pan. I converted my A-52 keene into a highbanker with Gold hog mats and a 3700 GPH pump. The water screams through the sluice and catches even flour gold. I can shut it down and then restart it without losses, I caught everything on restart for a few minutes and checked to be sure. Love the videos, keep it up!
Dan, as a fellow prospector I am out everyday running my sluice and panning. I must say I really enjoy your UA-cam channel and the posts you make I even learn something new each time. This video was especially great even my kids enjoyed it. Have awesome and safe travels
Glad to see you still out there “gettin it!” Your looking health and keep up on that heart buddy. Also you have an amazing wife pushing the heavy for you. I can tell you still want to do it all.
Another awesome production by Dan Hurd.. and family. Evan really appeared to be quite the water bug, I would be willing to bet that Evan and Polly would make a great video together!!! I hope and pray your medical condition gets better Dan.
Take your health back Dan for your urself, your a true inspiration, beyond informative and the most intriguing to watch on what you do, ive learned so much from your videos. Also would be nice to see some stuff on mineral identification for uncommon/ rare geo/hydrothermic stones and minerals
No wonder why you went away for a while! Good to see you're still kicking, but really sad to see such a good guy get health issues which keep him from fully enjoying doing the thing he obviously loves! Good thoughts to you, bro!
Whoohoo another great video as usual Dan...truly an inspiration for us new youtubers...always fun, educational and a bit silly tooo :P Love the run more material concept ALWAYS .....Keep em coming man ...a true Canadian gold miner EH
Dan, don't know if you or someone else has done the editing but I want to give a big shout out to the editor. The quality is improving noticeably and is pretty great now. Love the music montages and everything. Very well done.
Hey Dan, I love the videos! I would love to see some more about the MTO website. Like, what is the difference between a placer and a mineral title, what do they allow you to do, that sort of thing. Would be great to learn, for us BC locals, how we could get started looking for and obtaining our own titles. Thanks!
Hi Dan and Family, thanks for the great video's I really enjoy them. The easy way to convert C to f is 38C x 2 +25 = 101f. to convert f to C it's the same in reverse 101f -25 /2 = 38 it wont always be exact, but it's a good approximation. Cheers from Perth Australia.
I know a prospector who claims the work of mining and rolling boulders over fixed his heart murmer! Great to see you having fun! Hey, 8 bucks is 8 bucks!
We were told by people panning on our claim that we wouldn’t find anything, there was nothing at that end of the claim... True, we didn’t find big gold but we found some and it makes for fun days out, even if you need a microscope to see the gold lol!
So Dan when you alluded to the black sand being a component of one of the boulders you found were you trying to suggest that maybe there's a boulder of gold alongside that river? Only way to know would be a kick ass gold detector. Probably a Garrett, I've seen good results from the ones that use induction, range about $2,000 u.s.
I run my multi sluice with my piglet extension on it with wave and motherlode mats and run fine black sand cons from a gravel wash plant and it works great in fine flour gold
Started off slow but had a bang up finish! Evan is getting quiet the following. They were talking about him on one of the coin channel boards last night! All good of course!! Thanks Dan for the great video! JJ
Hey Dan! In what video were you testing out the Minelab 6 inch coil? Having trouble finding it again. So I got one, same issue, bump the wire near where it attaches to the coil and it faults. Maybe not good for swinging in water or under brush. Otherwise a fantastic coil for picking the good stuff from trashy parks. Was going to pass the vid on to another detectorist.
When you use the GoldHog "Sluice Box".put in some Miners moss you probably Can run dryer sand through it better. the miners moss will probly catch more gold trapped in the fibers just a suggestion......use a 1/2 thick miner moss... I hope that helps get to feeling better.... Learning a lot of painting gold through your videos.....
Dan, you're Amazing. Making a living in an Unconventional Way. Tripping Around The Rivers and Forrests like a Mountain Man ("Jeremiah Johnson"). Thanks Dan, for all you are and all you do
Hey Dan that stills looks good to me a nice bit of yellow for 2 hours 👍 and watch that ticker it has been already a bad year for a lot of people. Be safe
I love flour gold, yeah, its nice getting a picker or some little solid bits... But when your doing fine stuff, then pan it back and the flour gold starts to shine through at the top, I think it looks pretty! :)
Lol watching the river tubers brought back a memory of my 2 buddies n I floating down the river on air mattresses...what a great day it was to skip school...what a terrible day when we reached the bridge to see 3 mothers with folded arms tapping their toes n they were not line dancing...😅
We get a lot of really fine gold here in Olympia. Some call it fly poop. But really it is more like Flea poop. I noticed when I was using my Garett Super Sluice. Gold was being washed out with the light stuff. I would like to know how correct this problem. ?
Ya we could do without politics for a bit. I don't like those ads because it does not matter what side the ad is for, 1/2 the people are mad I am promoting that side on my channel. Even though I have no say in what ads go on my channel.
That is poison oak. It grows along the river on the smililkameen and the Okanogan River in quite a few places. I used to be able to walk through it with no problem but I was up in OROVILLE fishing on the Okanogan River when I was young and slid down a bank covered in it, now all I have to do is look at and I have it.
Love and hate your videos... lol love because you are very knowledgeable and find gold... hate because there is no gold to find here in West Virginia where I live. Stay healthy my friend...
I love gold too do digger gold biggest tow get e lee ee o is my dog bigest dogs but yes do make money gold camp and foods good luck injoy UA-cam channel!!!!!!
Dan Dan Dan!!! No scoop some videos no gas, how do you find so much gold most days lol? Another awesome video, thanks again for keeping us entertained!!!
Hey Dan! Great Vid as always. I have wondered two things over the years watching your vids. One- do you use a GPS to locate exact locations you prospect and make a find and two- Does BC have laws about using a battery powered bucket vacs at locations like you were at here? Thanks for the vid and Keep Safe!
Great video as always Dan and some nice gold! My fiancé is pregnant so hope to get her out prospecting for the first time next year! She doesn’t have much patience so I will take her to a spot that I know we will get gold😂 Keep up the good work👍🏻
Dan, in my area there is a sand that’s heavier than the black sand that has a dingy gold color. It isn’t as heavy as the gold tho. Any idea what mineral it might be?

Easy with the shovel, we want plenty of more videos. Love seeing the family working together.
You got it!
Sorry to hear of your heart issues, hope you stay well Dan!!
Glad your family are there to support you!
Dan you Proved it . You proved it ..
GOLD IS REALLY WHERE YOU FIND IT .. NO RHYME OR REASON GOLD ROLLS WHERE IT WANTS TO AND SETTLES WHERE IT WANTS TO .GOOD JOB👍
7:05 made me rewind a couple times... those bucket hits were PERFECTLY timed with the music.

I hope that you can find the right treatment and carry on with the same physical enthusiasm as your mental enthusiasm.

Thank's Dan for the Fun video with Family what great Crew!!!; )
Glad you enjoyed it
It's always nice to see the whole family involved and enjoying being together. Thanks for sharing
Time spent with family is worth more than all the gold out there! Thanks Dan!
you're welcome!
Nice to see the family out again. Beautifil day. Thanks for having us along.
Glad you enjoyed it

Loves your sense of humor! I really enjoy watching your family harvesting gold. GL stay out of trouble.

"Hey boys, roll around in the greenery and tell me how it feels." Classic.
Fantastic family day out.. thanks for sharing Dan 👍
Great to see you guys back and well , good to see you getting some gold too 👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇦🇺

That is definitely poison ivy, distinguishable by the 3 leaf pattern where one has a longer stem than the others
I'm itching already
Well done Dan, another beautiful day out in the sunshine, catching mother natures bounty. Thanks for the vids Dan, keep em coming.
Thanks, will do!
Another awesome production by Dan Hurd.. and family. Evan really appeared to be quite the water bug, I would be willing to bet that Evan and Polly would make a great video together!!!
I hope and pray your medical condition gets better Dan.
I think Evan and Pauly would get along

Great video. A wonderful setting to spend time with the family. Thanks for sharing.
Excited to see your channel growing so fast Dan. Seems like just a few months ago we were hitting 100k. Looking forward to 1 million.
Thanks!

The clarity of that water is insane! Looks deep too!
And the current was strong

I never envied any Canadian like this guy before.
he's living in a dream.
I just want to thank you for making these informative videos, you have taught me so much in a short amount of time, I thank you!
Dan what a wonderful day on the river. My first time commenting. I just want to say I have enjoyed watching you dig for gold for years.
Thanks 👍

I stumbled across your channel and now I am hooked! Watching you has inspired me to start a new hobby.
Welcome aboard!
Great video!!
Great days are with family on the river finding gold...awsome video
We were told by people panning on our claim that we wouldn’t find anything, there was nothing at that end of the claim...
True, we didn’t find big gold but we found some and it makes for fun days out, even if you need a microscope to see the gold lol!
You are blessed to have such a great family
Yes I am!
I can't think of a better way to spend a day, out with family in the beautiful BC outdoors.
So Dan when you alluded to the black sand being a component of one of the boulders you found were you trying to suggest that maybe there's a boulder of gold alongside that river? Only way to know would be a kick ass gold detector. Probably a Garrett, I've seen good results from the ones that use induction, range about $2,000 u.s.
Looks you all had fun, beautiful day to take the family out. Looking forward to your next video! Tc 😊
Thanks!
Great video thanks for sharing your really lucky to have a family that likes to do this type of thing Have a great day and prospect on
I from Turkey, in Trabzon. I love you Man. We are your distant Greek cousins. Hi all from Trabzon

If you're running a recirculation system like that, would a little jet dry help fight the float gold loss from dry material?
A great day with the family! Cheers!
Movin on up 164k subscribers!!! Keep it up Dan.... You da man!!!
Family time is very important, good luck
Well you may have a bad ticker, but we know your all heart, enjoy your family, and fun times!!

I was told years ago, look where the other's did not look. Under rocks, under sheds, under driveways, under what was covered up at one time.

Best line ever !!!
Great minds think alike
LMAO?

Is it possible to use magnetism to separate black sands?

didnt know you had a bad heart. i like your videos. Please take care of yourself.
I know it’s old but awesome adventure with family priceless 👍🏻

Thanks!
checked the snuffer had several specs. inside and on the lip. in the vial now.
I normally watch ads on you channel but they were presidential ads today. TY for the content Dan and family.

Kids....the water isn't cold.......sure! Dan do you ever GPS mark where you dug before? Water seemed down this year? Good to see you out having fun.
hope you had a great day out the water looked so inviting
Floating down a nice clear river. 🤗
Yup -- the boys want to try that next

Lesson Learned, Dan, but still great family time.
Yup
That's why when some novice tells me how to find gold I just roll my eyes on the inside and just smile pretty. Gold is where you find it.
Not a very good approach to learning for the novices either.
