    Really good video - thanks for sharing. I did a bit of exploring for gold at Warrandyte some 35 years ago with no success. I also remember going through the Pound Bend tunnel when the water was really high in a canoe - bad mistake ..lol. You did teach me some history I was not aware of ...thanks for that. :)

      Haha I bet it was indeed a mistake. When the water levels get high that tunnel turns into a beast. But yeah intersting place but as you say theres not a lot of gold left. Still a good day out. Anyways thanks 👍

    Onya mate.. In the mid 1970's when suction dredging arrived in OZ my brother and myself did a little work in Anderson's Creek, Warrandyte >> Dredging wasn't so much of an issue back then ;-) .. Great fun and we had some reasonable results.. Like you say its a great spot to visit to do a little panning.. Cheers

  • @WesleySnlpes

    Very well done vid mate. Love it.
    If you haven't already, you should check out Yankee Jim's mines up near Upper Yarra Dam. See if you can find them all! Cool little Creek there too.

    • @DigginForGold
      @DigginForGold  6 років тому +1

      Aha I haven't checked those out. On to the list they go 👍

    Last time I was at Andersons Creek there was rubbish everywhere, the funniest part was the sign I saw further along that said (Clean Waterways Victoria).....

    • @DigginForGold
      @DigginForGold  6 років тому +1

      Haha the irony must have reached a critical limit because it wasn't that bad (for where it is in the middle of suburbia) when I was there.
