      It’s getting warmer Richard. I think we will have at least a little dredging done in a few weeks

      @@twodudesonedredge I started out doin toilets/ pumpman did every job there was in operations all the way to training to be the Pit Boss. Ask Google for the TH-cam video of Valdez Creek Mine, Alaska. The pit boss on B crew made this video. Read the comments too and share with Johnny

    The 40 mile still has good gold if u can get on the right spot and have a good 8 inch operation,u can bank a good amount during a season with the gold prices today and what a way to live during the summer,i hope to do it some day god willing before i leave this world,lol.

      Totally agree. As Johnny said about the forty mile in one of our videos, “if we weren’t getting an oz. an hour we were moving on “
