- Trying out are come-along for the first time. And snipping on the bed rock around the area. Found alittle color and had fun doing so. at the end pulled on a little rock just for fun, had to use the come-along to learn alittle before we where going to us it dredging.

As there are many fish in the sea, there are many boulders in the river grasshopper.... Ha ;) perhaps a smaller rock? I love it too! Thanks for posting! And I love how it's a Family Affair.... Your daughters' adorable~🔱✨
When moving anything! Use a snatch block to allow you to pull at 90 degrees. That way if the main line snaps you aren't going to experience the full force of cable slap. You can also use a safety line with an eyelet to pass main line thru so if the cable snaps it gets caught by the safety line.
Great video and nice take there always a fun day finding gold cheers thanks for posting
I thought I was the only person crazy enough to use comealongs to move big boulders to look for gold. Glad I'm not the only one! Haha
Fun day with the fam :). Thanks for sharing
Another great video guy's . I truly enjoy watching you and your familey out together And I'm postive that all your hard will pay off in the end . oh and a good place to get cheep harnesses is the scrap yard . Seat belts long strong and cheep . good luck in the new year and happy prospecting.
You should have taken the chain to the far right side of the Boulder and wrapped it around the narrow end with the tail coming across the face presented to us and over to the trees as you pulled on the come along it would have rolled the boulder sideways right out of the hole with no problem. You can't drag a whole 10 ton Rock. U have to spin them out of their resting place.
The manner in which you were dragging the boulder would have only pulled down the trees if you had added snatch blocks and doublers. Once again you can't drag the whole Rock across the ground. Like I said you should take a loop across the face to the narrow side on the right and wrap it around that narrow end and spend it out it's resting place.
Great fun with you and heather. Hope to find a nugget soon.
Good job! idetecit is right about how you should move that boulder. Work downstream then throw it in your hole. I doubt even a large chainsaw winch triple or quad blocked could pull that thing upstream... it's massive! Looks like you have a good come along though. A cable choker like the ones used for logging would be a big help. You wouldn't have problems with the chain slipping like it was when pulling that smaller boulder. Keep up the good work!
Try to bust that boulder in half then use the come along and you just might get it moved !!!
thx!
Try using heavy duty straps instead of chain , I have lengths from 4’ to 35’ , a lot lighter to pac in and I feel they chock the rock better and better for the tree tie off point.
You need a wide nylon strap for the rocks
Very nice video, but at the end...' I have to ask you live on an Elk farm?
Oh i forgot to mention that i lay three seat belts on top one another and had my wife run them threw her sewing machine with the thickest thred i could find it works .
About 20 ton rock .without knowing correct diminions hard ta say
its gold rush 4real huh
A snatch block or two would have doubled or quadrupled your pulling force and weigh very little for carrying.
What creek is this ? I see you stop making videos. Why I've enjoyed them .
6061lucky my back. I hurt it pretty bad at work. After that, by by went all the fun I was having funding Gold.
Nice try
is that legal? with all the regs in the wa goldfish pamphlet, it seems to imply you cannot do so ... all them rules put me off from thinking about even simple panning!
Absolut Top! Wie alt ist deine Tochter?

Does your wife always do all of the work?
35ABSTRACT I try my best. To have her do anything and all things. for almost all the time, in a 24 hour day. An for my holy and easy as pie guy life. All I have to work on is lifting a can of cold Dr. pepper. And or finding the right sun glasses to wear with my out fit for the day.
what a good wife to have, don't you agree.
lol, sorry. but she is a great working partner to have anytime.
