- Filmed on location in the Scottish Highlands at the river Orchy which is a gold bearing river. The last time I was here I was absolutely blown away with the stunning scenery and how much gold there is to be found here. And yes, I did find a lot of lovely Scottish gold. If you are into gold panning and prospecting videos then this video might be just what you are looking for.

You saved the best till last - wow! The river, mountains, and photography are amazing!! Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it SGP, It was worth taking the time to make this one. All the best for the 2023 season buddy ...
Thanks for letting us tag along with you,love your dog,poor thing loves the water! We all get old,Thank you!
Thanks for watching James, the dogs enjoying retirement these days, he's snoring his head off right now on the sofa 🙂👍
Nice to get back to a bit of old school crevicing Daza - and within within moseying distance for that loyal hound of yours.
It is always a nice and easy way to find a few specs of gold 10000000 as I am sure you are aware and as for the dog he is just happy to lick his paws and have a nap at the side of the river these days
Pure Excellence. Thankyou.
Your'e welcome Stephen, thank you for sharing the great comment
Great video, makes me want to 'pop' there again, only stopped off briefly for lunch, only a 1000 mile round trip!
It's a long way up north TW but well worth it for the scenery .
Great work daz as you say, it's absolutely breathtaking views travelling up there, and while you're there, and just to top it off some lovely gold to end the day.
For just a few days spent up here Steve, the memories you take back will last a lifetime.
hi daz nice one, i saw my tent on this video that was a suprise 😊 i was there lst summer too, didnt know i was that close to you, it is the dark green one bottom left of screen,
Hello Robert, it is a lovely part of the world and the camping aspect to visiting this place just adds to the experience.
Was you on the campsite or wild camping ?
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures I was wild camping across the river from the camp site, in the video there's a wee blue tent in front of my yent, and your drone was above my tent in the video. I love Tyndrum, so lovely and nice people too.
I edited quite a bit out to make this video, I will have a look at my clips to see what else there is.
You picked a good week with the weather, it was stunning
@@MrDazP1adv3nturesokay, yes it was great weather, I'm going back to Tyndrum in couple of weeks.
Another magical video 🤩
Thank you for your kind words FaerieGold
That was a stunning video Daz nice to see the old lad with you. He looked like he was enjoying himself to. The footage and drone shots, we're brilliant and you commentary that wernt a bad year hope 2023 gets better and really enjoy your wild camp keep the videos coming Daz stay safe see you on your next adventure ⛏️👍f
Thank you kindly Stephen, I hope the dog can get out to a river again at some stage this year, he has slowed down a lot now. All the best to you for 2023 and thanks once again ...
Amazing,completely enjoyable watching I would love to see more
*TH-cam,please highlight this amazing channel for watching because it is beautiful and exciting and interesting and of a high quality that I imagine takes work and dedication to achieve*
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥰
Hi Glenda, they do take some putting together these videos nowadays and because this was filmed back in June last year, it's hard to remember what I was trying do or convey .
I have a small video left to make which will be a nice and easy quick one. Cleaning the rucksack at the end of the season.....
Thank you for your continual support once again 👍🙂
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures yes,I was amazed,I suppose forgotten about how light it is out at twenty passed ten at night in the summer- I was amused when you said this,and the dog had gone to bed haha. All I know is that a lot of serious time is taken,but the end product is amazing,truly.wish for you is that you were given the same thanks back,in a few million views and a ig big spike in subs. You definitely deserve it. Well,I appreciate watching your videos. Best in the uk actually. 🙌
Can't wait for 2023 gold rush! Awesome video daz really look forward to seeing them great work on the gold bud!
Thank you Rob, that's another year gone by and spring is on its way ready for the New season.
Brilliant MrDaz!! Thanks for sharing. Here’s hoping for more heavy pans in 2023
I hope so too DEJ and thank you for your continual support. I will take to the hills for 2023 and start to film my next adventures. I was thinking of launching season eight in the Autumn similar to this seasons as it gives people something to watch during the cold dark nights
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures sounds like a good idea to me
Absolutely awesome video!! Great filming!
Thank you Gorilla gold hunting 👍
Amazing videos you truly put the work and effort in thank you for sharing 👏 👍
Thank you very much Chambo C, It's all about telling the story, the gold is a bonus
A very impressive return to ‘Tyndrum’ Darren, what stunningly breathtaking views, I was amazed at the amount of gold you were finding, a real bonus at the end of a successful couple of wild camping days with your beautiful Labrador buddy…..many years ago my late husband and I walked a small distance along the ‘West Highland Way’ something I shall never forget……more recently I traveled virtually the whole length listening to ‘Outlander’ star Sam Heughan’s biography ‘Waypoints’ on Audio…..if only time travel was possible…..back to those glorious days! have a wonderful day Darren, Bernice 🤗
It's lovely to hear you talk about the many great adventures you shared with your husband Bernice.
I am a big believer in living for the moment whilst you have the health and well being to get out to do such things.
I was in a bad way 25 years ago with my back and was bedbound unable to walk to the toilet. This was not a nice place to be. Once the pain started to relieve it's self, I started to tick off things on my bucket list and have never looked back.
Thank you so much for your kind words and support Bernice, they are greatly appreciated.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures I thought I may be boring you Darren, but it’s so refreshing to see your enthusiasm for life, I’ve had enough grief in my life to last another life time, so I never take anything for granted, and live for the moment, I admire you greatly for overcoming such a devastating time in your life, to be in such a place as a young man must have been horrendous, I have suffered severe back problems for over twenty years and can barely stand or walk now, but at least I’ve had a long and eventful life, so one day at a time, it’s amazing how wonderful this world of ours is, bless you for being such an inspiration Darren and a good listener 🤗
Bless you both! I have a similar story, I lived for the moment for 30 years, a head and back injury, I fell down a cliff. 25 years later (now) I am just starting to feel I might be able to get back out there, my partner and children are encouraging me and having been a treasure hunter and outdoor man, I do wish to get on to it again, Tyndrum is on the list of first destinations, the girls are buying the panning equipment and some paydirt as we speak so we can practice... Thanks Daz and Bernice for the inspiration.
Love Peace and Respect
@@freemanbynature Hello, I’m so sorry to hear about you accident, that sounds devastating especially for an outdoors man, I’m sure with determination and the encouragement of a wonderful family your wish will come true, and Tyndrum is a great place to start your new found adventures…..I have always admired Darren ever since I first hitched a ride with him when he was ‘storm chasing’ just imagine an aging lady tearing around the countryside at warp speed, it was great 👍 not sure what my late husband would think of that, I had not long lost him to Parkinson’s after caring for him for over 25years, he developed it age 50. and bless his soul he never complained once, so I say live for the moment as I still do at the grand old age of 84 this year, my spirit is still willing but my body just doesn’t know it! Well I wish you and your family all the luck in the world, let me know when you make your first find of that precious gold, I’m sure Darren would say it’s a thrilling experience, but don’t expect to become a millionaire overnight! Blessings from Bernice in Derby’s 🤗
Found and subscribed. Thanks for the great tip Bernice. 👍
Great weather and looked like you had a breeze to keep them midges away.
Such an amazing place!
The midges were there Jason. I came back looking like I had a rare disease. What a place though !
mate thats a stunning valley the rocks in the river look similar to here ,its been a cracking series daz enjoyed every episode cheers
I have cycled around here and swam in the rivers as a kid.
It's a beautiful place. There is a vein crossing the river lower down stream and a gold mine in full operation over the next valley. The faultibg in this area is really interesting and you can see where the glaciers carved through the mountains.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures glaciation fascinates me it’s one of the most ancient prominent erosive actions that truly designates where I prospect and with which techniques epic place bud
Another beautiful video Daz. Always a nice spot to get some colour
Cheers SGH, it was my first time on this river, what a place !
Love you’re videos from Aberdeenshire
Hi John , thank you for your support pal 👍
Always expect a great video from you, always get one, going up there again soon, hope I get as much colour, respect.
Thanks AlbaCeltic G 👍 May your pans be heavy my friend and best of luck on your trips out to the rivers
Wonderful video, great scenery at what looks like a really cool camp. Thanks for the video, really enjoyable.
Thank you CryoGen, What a great season it was and this trip was right up there. Stay tuned for season eight......
Hi mate love your vids . I'm lucky enough to live in N Wales . Just a bit west of tge gold belt . You really must try tge little streams connecting snowdonia and Dolgellau. I have seen some amazing stuff come our of the smaller streams that many overlook .
Thanks for the info 6213 and thank you for commenting. Do you have any areas in particular worth prospecting. I have tried a main river that flows from Bala towards Dol and there is definitely gold in it.
Really nice vid cheers 👍👍
Thank you Pollatso Cheers.👍
Have you thought about skimming a metal detector around tyndrum? Would be intereseted in your thoughts on that! :)
That is a very interesting thought indeed which could lead to finding that elusive nugget for the collection. The tricky part would be to get permission to detect on the land where the gold is - for the gold.
It's one of them grey areas like most things in the UK but a great question
Great video Daz, I did well there last time I went
Cheers Dan, I watched that video of yours, you had a really good pan at the end of the day
Brilliant daz nice work lovely footage aswell tyndrum is a special place, better weather an lighter mornings an nights are just round the corner roll on this season 👍🏻
Couldn't agree more with you Carl, I thought that it was lighter that bit further north up there than where I live. The birds are singing already like it is springtime
@MrDazP1 morning I can confirm that when I was leaving for work at 630 the birds were already singing an it was definitely lighter this morning, this season is going to be challenging for me with 2 wee kids under 3 to keep a eye on while trying to find some shiny but I'm sure we will have a great time never the less 🤞🏻hopefully all the swimming lessons have paid off an ill have my own wee sniping team soon😅 have a nice day 👍🏻
Get the kids out into the wilderness Carl.
Too many young ones don't do this these days. They don't even climb trees.
Be safe and have fun and let me know how you get on.
@MrDazP1 oh for sure buddy they will be coming out wild camping an panning with us every time we go they are going to be brought up by the river, I'm that mad for it we have had our daughter in swimming lessons since she was 1 lol she is 2.5 now an swims pretty good with arm bands on lol 🤞🏻 she will be in the river this year😅, I can just see us having sniping wars all ready no daddy that's my bit I found that 😅, yeah kids today are screwed daz unfortunately with all the social media and computers they are connected to there friends 24/7 an I think this is a big part of the problem, God when I was a kid I was never home after school we would go the woods bike jumps tarzey swings beck jumping oh daz the list could go on and on an also we had to use the phone box no mobile phones an this was only mid 90s oh how things have changed, any how am rambling now lol u have a nice evening daz looking forward to this years episodes 👍🏻
I am in total agreement with you pal. When we were kids getting grounded by your parents was the worst thing ever. Today you have to kick em outside to teach em a lesson.
We used to plan to meet up after school using the old AM ( Auntie Mary ) CB radios, using CB jargon and '10' codes to chat with each other. Knock a door run, garden creeping and Skateboarding.
What a laugh....
I'm well into my 50's and still playing out !
It's a brill area mate. Love it up there
The views are just breathtaking pal and the wee campsite was perfect for me and the dog.
nice vid daz!
Thanks Jonathan
Inspiring dazp!
Cheers FBN
Great video I really enjoyed it. Can I ask where you get the large yellow snuffer I can't find one anywhere?
Cheers my friend
I hope this helps

Eh up Daz hope your well mate have u lost your bike or something 😉
Hello Geoff, far from it ! Have you heard of a Raleigh Pioneer commuter bike from the 80's and 90's.
Well I have only restored one and it's looking like new so please stay tuned. My cycling videos will resume once again over the coming weeks......
@MrDazP1 OK mate not heard of one but probably recognise one if I see it 🚵💨💨💨
Hi MrDazP1 I stayed in the Round Hut by your tent two years ago the person that runs it is the one that told me the locals do not like people panning any more there. He let me try the stream that flows past the site the side that merges from the Crom Alt Stream. I found a few specks there. Got better bits from the crom alt stream as you now is higher up. Nice Video was thet filmed last year.
Hello William, it is a lovely little campsite with nice flat pitches. I filmed this in June last year when it was really warm which made it that bit extra special, especially when camping
Awesome video, always good to see a prospter removing lead from our local streams and rivers.
Thanks Ray 👍 I try to tell the story whether I find a few specs or a few grams. This location is stunning too !
As a Scot we pronounce in Tin-drum 😉
Cheers buddy, I have asked a "Weagie' (Glaswegian) and he said Tin drum but I have been told it's Tine drum.
The British language eh...I 👍🙂
Nice haul and location pal. Hope to see you soon.
Cheers Steve, hope you are well buddy 👍
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures I'm getting there! . I should be right for spring adventures.
Good to hear pal.
Stunning area, love that quartz vein outcropping. Is there access to walk and visit the vein?
I have not walked up to the vein but I dare say there is a path. I will look on the map .
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures I'm going to that area for prospecting at the end of April, would be great to catch up.
I'm driving from Jersey Channel Islands 🤣🙈 I'm well keen.
I've already been in Wanlockhead and that was awesome too.
can anyone pan for gold in any of scotlands streams and rivers, thanks for sharing.
You can pan for gold on some estates by purchasing a permit.
On other estates people just pan for recreational purposes and it appears to be tolerated but it's the bank diggers and people who use banned methods who cause problems for the hobbiest and the community in general.
Nice 1 bud what was ur weigh in for the season. 👍🏴⚒️
I never weighed it pal, I didn't find enough worth weighing 😥😄
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures that's a shame bud but as long as ur finding enough to keep u interested. Iv been lucky this year iv not had a lot of time on the hunt but got enough for a ring for my wife. 👍🏴⚒️
Wow that's excellent.
Some advice on hotel accommodation or any type of nearby the lake to reach by walking? I will be a tourist with out a car 😔
The Tyndrum Inn pub is a good place !
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures Thank you will check it!
Daz, That's Quite a sluice, A bit expensive for my pocket though. A Question, do you think that sluice is the reason for the big clean up? (Not taking anything away from your skills or hard work.) Congratulations, what did it weigh, if you do not mind?
Hello Freeman BN, The sluice is designed in principal for moving a lot of material and getting through the buckets but on this occasion I wanted to try it out by just gently feeding it.
The difficulties on a river such as this one are the heavy black sands etc which fill the riffles up quickly and means that you have to do frequent clean ups. It seems to work well in both situations though but I always go back to basics with regards to how much gold you find. It has to be present in the ground at the spot you are working for you to have better outcomes. I think it goes to show that micro crevicing the cracks can pay off at the end of the day. I didn't bother weighing the gold from this trip as all I needed was enough to see in the pan in order to make a video worth watching.
Thank you for asking the questions.....
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures You are welcome and thanks for the reply, I realise now, they have different size sluices, was yours the 'super', it looks like it, the fact that you said they were made for those particular rivers impressed me. I think We will own one soon :)
Yes, mine is the Cali super sluice
Amazing video's Daz. I'm just planning on starting out with my kids, and I'm wondering if there are any rules on panning in rivers like landowners permission etc?
Hi Gareth, it's always better if you have landowners permission but some locations are well known for it taking place without.
You can get permits at Leadhills and Wanlockhead for a year though which is good news. Likewise up at Baile an Or.
Best of look with the hobby, I'm sure you will have loads of fun and learn something on every trip.
Keep me informed as well about your adventures.👍
@MrDazP1adv3ntures Hi Daz, Amazing thank you for the advice it's much appreciated. It's just hard knowing what's what starting out, and any tips on things like that and where to start is greatly appreciated. I love your channel, and your videos keep it up. It feels like I'm on the journey panning for gold with you 😊
Thank you Gareth, best of luck. Do your research, watch lots of tutorials, learn to read the river , practice how to pan with sand and a few small fishing weights and check them cracks in the bedrock. 👍😉
@MrDazP1adv3ntures Thanks Daz, It's much appreciated. I'm doing lots of research online to find places to go, and I ordered some paydirt for practice which is due to arrive on Friday which I'm looking forward too. Is there anywhere you'd recommend to sell the gold once I've accumulated a decent amount?
Good idea with the pay dirt for practice 👍
As for selling the gold, that's one thing I don't do.
There will people out there who are in certain circles who will offer you so much per gram for it or who then make up bags of paydirt themselves with a guaranteed amount of gold mixed in.
I just enjoy the adventure and fascination of it.
It is space dust after all ....
Hi daz are you still gold sluicing i am a inventor and creator of a very new mat and wondering if you would like to test and review one ?
Hello Lucy, I've had a few trips out up to the Mennock and Leadhills this year and am hoping to get out soon.
Can I ask what kind of sluices are you are developing.
It's interesting when talking to other prospectors about what systems they prefer to use, but
by all means, if I can help you out I would be more than happy to.🙂👍
Can you give the better locations where to find it? Plsss❤
This will give you all the answers

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures thank you
Anyone able to inform me about the legalities behind gold panning in Scotland? What permissions are needed? Genuinely wanting to give this a wee go, looks fun regardless of a find or not
If you go to the old Pine trees campsite up here they permitted panning in the river which runs by the pitches. It's changed it's name recently
