The forest service sent their best pawn and he ran onto the Law. Thank God for you guys. As miners we must know the Law and make them know that we know it. They need to stop choosing which organizations they patronize based upon financial pier pressure and just follow the law. If not then that publicly controlled Forest service oganization has no service use.
I enjoyed watching this dude break it down man, had an awesome time too!!! Wonder why forestry didn't tell the bus loads of church peeps to not dam the river with trash bags for the baptisms ??? Lol
It is hard to believe that we can't even pan on land that we the people own. As of June 2016 we can no longer sluice in the White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire and Maine. Obama by executive order made a large tract of land in Maine a national monument I think it is called the North Woods National Monument. We need a group like AMRA here on the East Coast. It is sad when you have to carry all these papers with you in order to prove you are allowed to prospect.
I know this was a long time ago and I appreciate the conversation. The president of the group said he’s from a an law background and that helps his stand but maybe he should have known what PL in PL 359 stands for. He said himself he didn’t know. Just an observation I appreciate what he does
I want to get into gold panning and I live in LA. Only done some paydirt from Amazon so far. Now I'm realizing how hard it is to find a good spot and not get hassled. So, this was a good video for me. I'll look into the AMRA. Side note, would it be illegal to light a citronella candle? It looks like everyone at the table is getting eaten alive by flying insects!
I think lighting any sort of fire is illegal last time I went. I saw a sign on the way there that said no campfires allowed. So I assume anything fire related is prohibited likewise.
What are your issues in the case or cases now pending in court? I have a Load Mine in Johannesburg California and I am willing to donate $25.00 if the issues you are addressing are helpful to all miners. In 1998 the Feds stopped allowing miners be to file Land Patents which I would like to take up issue with and have reversed. So.... Please get back to me and I will gladly join your fight and enlarge the scope if possible. Thank you, Hank.
I like to conserve our mountains as much as the next guy, but a handful of guys panning for gold is not doing anyone any harm. the San Gabriel River gets trashed every weekend by non-prospectors visiting the canyon. that would be a much more important task for the USFS to focus on.
good morning Shannon have you ever met Cory from Gold Rush expeditions it seems you too share the same view of the forest service the illegal closing of public lands needs to stop thanks
Here in New Zealand our cops are not officially armed. They have access to a fire arm in the locked boot, " trunk" of their vehicle however. What is with the low slung, thigh holster depicted in this video? Quick draw Mcgraw?
Unfortunately it is the most common carry position in law enforcement today. As is the shotgun was replaced by the m-16 in the squad cars even in residential neighborhood's Mainly because we are public= enemy. It's got to stop.
one thing we used to do is have a kid go up to officer, and be very enthusiastic about hunting for gold and having fun! using ploys may be against some people's better judgement, but you do what is in your best interest. and kids are great at de escalating tensions. we've had troopers and forest reps. help us out, even if they were first opposed. we also calmly rake over areas we've been, leave no piles, no trash, NO CIGGS OR ALCOHOL, we leave it better thn when we got there. it takes very little to achieve a lot. we've also hit brick walls. that's when we go downstream. also make contact with a local who may have someone who will let you on private land. leave it better thn when we got there. and give them a little gold if you find any. they will almost always give it back. leave a tree planted etc. it gets noticed, others with private land open arms to you. now you have honey holes. and no cops..may take while to establish, but pays off. I know most know this, I'm just repeating
I was at Bridgeport no sleuth hand gardening shovel and gold hog flow pan was ran off by state of cal PANS N HANDS in norcal on American and yuba so far need help same issues up here
This looks like a waste of time to me you need to go to the law makers they are the ones that need to be explained to and why they feel the way they do.
No more digging unless you had a mining claim in place and were working it. The new prospecting is banded is that water shed. I here so much double talk , He is to enforce whet the higher ups tell him to do.
USFS along w/ most law enforcement need re-training. They violate their oaths on regular basis. People [in our republic] are the POWER! these tax paying citizens are being HARRASSED, and this video is why 2nd amendment was necessary!!! Keep fighting em, and TRUTH WINS!!!!
Way to keep your cool Pres.! Still can't afford $5 each time for an adventure pass or even $30 for the yearly to go out though. They dress like combat troops no wonder things escalate when they come up on you in the wild where we go to get away from exactly just that.
i would like too futher ur overhead can cause an overaggressive dredge even a pipe one i bleww out a whole delta after work sent er down stream w 1 pipe
pan all you want screw them all! just dont be an idiot who shows up with 75 other asshats so other people will not think you are there to party and tear up the landscape. If he shows up with his group of croneys in oregon, they are all libel to get hurt. Rock on dudesky!
hate to tell all of you, (as a retired combat vet) if you read and learn the acts passed like the patriot act and the Obama medical plan. under the vail, in the bill passed by them. we have given up pretty much every right. I'm not just spitting this out, please read the entire bill. there is a reason these bills are thousands of pages thick. things like the gov. has the right now to at ANY time from all fdic banks and other thn privately owned banks. your money and safety boxes are subject to confiscation at any time. think it hasn't been done? ask an old time how he lost his old gold, gov. has done this before, once. You can be detained by simply being suspected of being a terrorist because of ANY reason. it gets much worse, learn about world bank, etc. I'm no flake, a realist who's been on the other side, didn't like what I did, and saw done..look at the detention camps that are prepared to hold millions of people. in almost every state they have them. I've worked on them. many have, it's no secret, just that many are in denial because they're happy with having that refrigerator cold and 5 feet away. as long as people are weak and allow themselves to be controlled, this will get worse. we need more people like this guy who won't back down. simply put, if he's American, does he not have a say in what can be done on HIS land? if no, why? simple stuff, they just make it hard by putting people in jail etc. and even cops don't know what to do. we do have many bad and dump cops, they are people, right! So you get all kind. the guilt is when the wrong they do is hidden and power abuses by gov. it WE the people etc. Andrew Jackson warned us of this day. This is why constitutional amendment allows for us to assamble in arms against anything opposing the constitution. yes? that's true...its just that people who are willing to take action are getting less by the day. people are getting so weak minded. they are mostly credulous and weak. so it takes fewer a holes to control the masses. that's part of it. thanks for standing upright to the end. bravo
Thank you for the support at east fork and keeping us still doing our gold mining ⛏ there. Love ❤️ watching the video of the fight for our right’s.
The forest service sent their best pawn and he ran onto the Law. Thank God for you guys.
As miners we must know the Law and make them know that we know it. They need to stop choosing which organizations they patronize based upon financial pier pressure and just follow the law. If not then that publicly controlled Forest service oganization has no service use.
People are still doing it, including me, on the East Fork
You still go haven't went 4 a few months now.
Seemed like a great conversation. Stand up forest service officer. Very professional. This is how dialogue is supposed to unfold.
Also the FS was formed in 1905 haha
Verry informative... I wanted to go back and use my sluce box. I havent use it in about 4 years..
I enjoyed watching this dude break it down man, had an awesome time too!!! Wonder why forestry didn't tell the bus loads of church peeps to not dam the river with trash bags for the baptisms ??? Lol

I dont live there, start your group
Congrats on keeping your cool!

so its no longer our land its the government for the government and the hell with us !!!
land should not be allowed to be owned by a non living entity i.e corporations, governments, businesses.
I want to get into gold panning and I live in LA. Only done some paydirt from Amazon so far. Now I'm realizing how hard it is to find a good spot and not get hassled. So, this was a good video for me. I'll look into the AMRA.

Thank you,

this is a good organization
so then panning for gold is now prohibitied?
No
Just ordered my sluice box. I cant wait to start mining at East Fork.
The USFS can have my gold pan ,but they will have to pry it from my cold dead hands. Same for my dredge.
what's going on ? the male usfs ranger does not appear to have a firearm, but the female usfs ranger does wear a hostered firearm ~
open your eyes, he has a semi auto strapped to his leg and a taser on his belt on his left. now shut the hell up if you cant stay on topic,
He has a gun
I like to conserve our mountains as much as the next guy, but a handful of guys panning for gold is not doing anyone any harm. the San Gabriel River gets trashed every weekend by non-prospectors visiting the canyon. that would be a much more important task for the USFS to focus on.

He thinks you're guilty until proven innocent.
I was at Bridgeport no sleuth hand gardening shovel and gold hog flow pan was ran off by state of cal PANS N HANDS in norcal on American and yuba so far need help same issues up here
Wikipedia's says USFS founded Feb 01, 1905
the east fork is off limits for large mining companys and the recreational weekend miner.
Why is it the forest service doesn't support mining and miners? Mining is good for rural communities and businesses.
This looks like a waste of time to me you need to go to the law makers they are the ones that need to be explained to and why they feel the way they do.
No more digging unless you had a mining claim in place and were working it. The new prospecting is banded is that water shed.
I here so much double talk , He is to enforce whet the higher ups tell him to do.
when we have to tell the government that WE are the government with force
USFS along w/ most law enforcement need re-training. They violate their oaths on regular basis. People [in our republic] are the POWER! these tax paying citizens are being HARRASSED, and this video is why 2nd amendment was necessary!!! Keep fighting em, and TRUTH WINS!!!!
this might have made some sense to me if i could read your fine print. you tube is not a newspaper.
