    Went there in July’23. What a wonderful place. Purchased the Mother Load Bag. The staff was were so kind and helpful. The mountain itself had a very healing energy. Met Rex one of the owners. He taught us a great deal about the area and took us for a short drive to a scenic view. Took some beautiful pictures. I highly recommend this place. We had choices, many do the locals spoke well of this place. Wonderful Experience!! Still working on my bag.

    We order the bags of gravel shipped to us a few times a year, and search at home!

    I drove over 600 miles to this place, closed, but the store was open, bought a couple bags, not even one stone! I’m a collector and wanted to add to my collection, I also facet my own, I was pretty disappointed, I could have bought stones for what I paid for just gravel! Good luck tourist

      No cost to access the main place - you just drive up, buy a bag for $50-$100, and start mining! It costs more to self-mine at their sites up in the mountains.

      You can mail-order bags of concentrate (gravel) to be shipped to you, and rinse and search it at home!

    How many natives were murdered or starved for this la d to be stolen and acted upon as though nothing of the sort happened? Crazy how that works. . .
