    Jason, I'm glad that you had a golden time on Dan's Fraser River claim. It is truly what he says about gold being everywhere. Your prospecting and finds are, I'm guessing, about 3 grams. The larger pieces looked like they might be classified as pickers, too. I can't wait to see what smelt down at your shop! Thanks for sharing! Blessings from Alabama ❤️

    That's awesome Jason, that river when it's going can make you feel very very insignificant. I was at my claim yesterday, a little below where you were and it is 4 to 5 ft. vertically lower than I `ve ever seen it, and where I am it's wide. It could easily in my area come up 45 ft vertical. A lot of water for sure but this year so dry up country run off might be the lowest ever. The headwaters are hurting this year. Oh signs of jumpers on my claim, looked like they decided to do some high banking . I'm watching and maybe we'll meet.

    The Fraser River (/ˈfreɪzər/) is the longest river within British Columbia, Canada, rising at Fraser Pass near Blackrock Mountain in the Rocky Mountains and flowing for 1,375 kilometres (854 mi), into the Strait of Georgia just south of the City of Vancouver.

    If you had as mini shaker table. You could probably make this I don't know you might already have it out there I don't know but if you had a mini Shaker table that had a water pump on it that could spray those rocks as you could suck it up with a vacuum that would put it to the Shaker table. I bet a guy could do better in a day make it portable backpack style with a small generator. It would probably take one guy to pack in the generator and one guy to pack in the Shaker table it would have to have a hose on it that have suction from a vacuum that would put the material to the Shaker table
