- Опубліковано 23 лип 2024
- Join us on this South Umpqua River Oregon adventure while we sluice for gold and classify buckets to run at home. Everyone finds gold! We also have some special guests and equipment demonstrations by the manufacturer. This is a large group meet up celebrating the opening of a new prospecting store near Portland Oregon in Beaverton Oregon. The store is called Prospectors Treasure Trove. 10400 SW Allen Blvd Beaverton Oregon. The owner Dan Rouse gives a basic introduction of the store. The Gold-N-Sand X-Stream Hybrid (hand pump with bucket) is demonstrated by Cash Best the manufacturer and distributor. We also have Mike Pung (inventor of the Gold Cube) helping out with the demonstration. We also catch a glimpse of Dakota Fred of the Gold Rush Series, I didn't get around to interviewing him though. We do however walk around and check what others are doing, classifying, sluicing and even a recirculating Gold Cube. The adventure ends with a decent weigh up of beautiful placer gold.

Awesome y'all!!!
Thank you!
Was great to meet you, good times for sure!
Same here and thanks for the first blood pocket picker!
Nice video! I just bought the hand dredge machine waiting for it to be delivered
Awesome! It takes some finesse to use it well. I use it in a number of my other videos.
It was great to see you out there! I got an exciting amount of gold and a lot of garnets.
I forgot about the garnets. I found one that was quite a bit larger than the others. Always a cool bonus!
Looked like an awesome get together. I wish I could have made it! Great video and way cool family time!
It was and hopefully we'll have another!
Wow you did great! Wish I lived out that way!
Still a 4 hour drive for me. Wish I lived closer! Lol Such a good spot for family prospecting.
Right on man, I wish I would have went to this. This looked like fun, great job on the gold.
It went surprisingly well. Lol What a great spot to do something like that. Everyone had such a good time I think we'll be doing it again.
@@prospectingforadventure , count me in on the next one. I’m just down I5 a few hours or less 👌
Good video sir! Hopefully I can make it to the next outing, looks fun!
Thank you! Yeah, don't miss the next one!
We were just getting on our way down to the meet up and my buddy's truck blew a head gasket! Bummed we missed out, but we'll be at the next one.
Oh man that socks! I'm sure there will be another!
Great video brother good to meet you out there
Awesome meeting you as well! Hopefully we'll get another chance this summer.
Yeah that would be great
WOW there is no water already. Looks fun tho.
Went up a bit after this. Definitely low when we went.
@@prospectingforadventure Ya, this summer might really suck. I just watched your new short, looking good ( :
Your test pan is better than what I get in a whole bucket. You must sniff that gold out or I'm just not looking in the rite spots
Experience definitely helps. I do quite a few test pans and the poor ones don't normally make the cut. Unless I'm struggling to find something. Lol They key is don't fill your bucket until you find a good test pan.
@@prospectingforadventure ya. I honestly just find what I think might be a decent spot and start digging, classifying, then running through the sluice. I definitely think I need to start doing test pans before I just commit to one spot for most the day
You'll definitely see better results testing.
Where exactly on the south Umpqua did they have this event
Looks like a good time was had. Is there any gold left?
Absolutely, that's why we went there. Even with all those people digging there's a lot of consistent gold left. Each winter that place gets replenished to an extent.
Where do I sign up? Please.
For what?
Is that a private claim or is there public land availability?
That's public land.
@@prospectingforadventure thank you! Been watching your videos and have enjoyed them very much!
Thank you! It makes me happy hearing people enjoy them!
Do you need a permit to sluice in Oregon?
No, but some areas are hands and pans only. There are pretty strict limitations for motorized prospecting.
@@prospectingforadventure I really want to get into it but the regulations are confusing and strict. I just want to sluice local creeks
You should be fine. The hands and pans areas are classified as wild and senic corridors. You can always look up your local prospecting store and have a conversation with them.
Are you having another get together?
Here's the info.

I don't know if I'll be there or not. I'm dredging the week before and it's a lengthy drive for me.
lol,
May I ask what's funny?
