  • There has never been an easier and safer time to explore and see our wild places than right now.
    And on this video we’ll do exactly that. Im heading into a new area to explore and prospect for gold. Every indication is telling me there should be good deposits along the river, so I’ll be travelling 20 km downstream and testing along the way.

      I bet if you take the metal detector you might find an underground bunker because if you stay at old, maybe older than you and then they get to use it for contacting Gold, maybe more than gold may be some prices damn there’s around there for a mine

    Looked like a river gauging station to me. Seen a few here in West Oz over the years. Rivers commission can calculate river effluction volumes, annually by monitoring summer & winter peak flows etc.
    That’s how they decided where to build hydro dams in Tassies case.
    Sometimes they used to build V notch weirs on smaller tributaries - often they make good trout fishing ponds above the weir.
    Layer the water authority here started pulling the V notch weir walls out in case they were impeding recruitment of native minnows & lampreys etc.
    Can’t be too old Rob as it has a solar panel on it.

      Tasmanian rivers and water supply commission used cable cars across rivers to measure annual flow in a river to ascertain potential water availability for a potential hydro dam and or possible diversion to irrigation part of the Strategic Water Information and Monitoring

It rains here 9 months of the year. I love the videos you produce, you’re keeping me young! Thanks Rob!

    Dang those rapids looked cool. That one rock looked like a 3 foot drop. Sorry I'm in USA don't know metric. In book a white water ride beats looking for gold. Gold is a labor of addiction that ride you can't buy and its pure adrenaline. That boat has really impressed me. Rob I do like all your postings, the scenery is the best and I like your narrative on the trips. I float the river here in my canoe. Colder than crap here now. Keep these videos coming you got my vote. That zip line was.a cool find,; I want hear what's it four. That wide path did you walk that for a bit. I wish this stuff was around the corner from me I would join you for a snoop at things.
