  • This trip out, my son and I rafted from Devon Alberta down the North Saskatchewan River to our campsite...What should of been a 3-4 hr trip...turned out to be a 6 hr trip with all the stops... We found gold at every stop, some better than others.. Hope you enjoy!

    really enjoyed floating down the river with you, leave the young un alone, he followed the golden rule, be seen, not heard, loved the idea of marking the best spots , by a previous prospector, hope to have more journeys on the river with you. soon, i hope.....

    I went last fall to smith, & tried the very same in the Athabasca river, got about the same result. Overall from what i found, i wouldn't bother going back, looking forward to trying the north sask this summer coming up.

    That's some good looking area ... much like where I work on Washinton states part of the snake river and the Columbia river ... very fine gold ... It's there ... Finding those really rich paystreaks
    can be a challenge ... I am finding most of mine in the ancient streambed that is above and sometimes up to a half a mile from the now existing river ... most of them around a quarter mile from the wet zone ... they can be very rich by modern standards 2-3 grams gold per 5 gallon bucket ... this stuff is very fine ( like yours ) down to 200-300 mesh

    • @CanadianGoldProspector

    All the gold sitting on the bedrock..not in the mud....disappointing panning first 10 minutes... have hit the like button, In the 1980's knew a pizza delivery guy,panning that river in the middle of Edmonton under a bridge.Always there on the weekends and after work.
    He was getting 1/2 oz of flakes a week,Would pan 20 weeks/collect pogie and then spend his winters in Mexico.

      You need a floating dredge to get enough North North Sask flour gold to make it financially worth it. Dredges would not be legal these days as it causes significant issues with fish. Edmonton had several gold dredges operating in it's history
