    Just gonna say...HELL YEAH MAN ! 👍 48, just started when winter started. All decked out here in Nw Oregon and anywhere there's known gold is pepperd with Claims even in Clackamas County. 🤫 Eagle Creek area. ALL POSTED ON RIVER SIDE OF ANY ACCESS ROADS. Anyways, you find yourself becoming an outlaw prospector, parking roadside near closed parks and campgrounds (close to) way down stream. I learned QUICK digging under banks (just a lil, nothing the water wouldn't eventually do itself) and BOOM. Started getting lucky. I have three spots scattered from the Mollala to Salmon creek and in between and have poked/prodded 5.5 grams myself by going atleast twice a week where there's no snow since November since I got laid off. (still just a hobby) They say there's no gold in the Nw part of Oregon?? I say, there's not any KNOWN spots that are profitable for BIG mining. Its here. Grounds mostly saturated for 9 months out of the year. I bet its just not profitable, that we know. Ground has changed ALOT in 200 years. Oh yeah, silver is here too. Found a small 7.5 gram nugget 4 days ago.

    Best advice, make Jeff carry out your gold for you, slow him down a bit and you might have a chance.

    Scouting out currently.
    It’s so close to recreational area it’s weird that it’s so rich.
