how to find goldDepending upon the physical nature of a particular river, you may find gold in many types of places; in some other creeks and streams, perhaps only in a few places. We’ve found gold, for instance, along a sandy bank of a river in Colorado that meandered through a meadow (so we could dig ONLY on the sand bars); then again, we’ve found gold in California along a river where tall, rugged mountains rose from steep-sided banks (could clean out crevices, cut moss, and dig on sand bars).
So . . . study your river, creek or stream carefully before you start to work finding gold flakes or nuggets!
