All around the world, moving boulders is an art, a gold prospector must know 💪🤠👍. But you know, who invented the puller hoists? -> The Swiss 😃. In fact, the french invented them, but we ignore that in Switzerland, cause we make the better hoists, haha. Hello from a Swiss gold prospector 🤠
Hey Gary! I’m with you - I’m sure there’s still a nice picker down there! And - only 20 more days until I head down to the claim in your neck of the woods! You have no idea how much you bring out my gold fever! Keep it up! :)
Thanks for the video, Gary. It's always an education watching you and hearing your logical approach to finding the gold. 2+ grams is a pretty good day in my book.
Nice day out! The only thing missing from this video was Jeff. Always look forward to Two Toes content like a kid on Christmas morning. Unrealistic but a day out with Gary would be a real thrill and an excellent lesson on finding the shiny ✨
You gotta start selling those sweaters! BTW - the crevicing tools Gary sells are amazing. I pulled a couple grams out of a hairline crack in the bedrock this weekend & the only reason i got to it is because Gary's crevicing tool is thin/ flexible enough to follow the crack and get it cleaned out! After this video, i might invest in a winch or comealong system to get under those big boulders. Thanks for the video Gary!
Save all my Lead and melt it into bottom fishing gear lol. It would be great to see a video of you running some gravel through a sluice box, good luck out there!
Wanted to go out this weekend and swing detector in hills. Was too hot, car is really old and not in the best shape. Glad this vid was here too make me jealous.. lol. 😋
Been a fan for a very long time Gary, and while I enjoy reading comments, I don't usually comment. Can't help myself on this one though. I didn't see that anybody else noticed the two geese(?) that land on the water at the top of the frame about 3:56 into the video.
Mr Two Toes you should bring a water filter so you can work longer and harder hours.! There’s no reason you should leave for lack of water and besides it’s only a 2300 inch hike in elevation to the truck where your ice chest is sir = more water. LOL. Oh or bring me I’ll be Jeff for a trip Hi Jeff 👍🇺🇸⚒🍀😎
Nice finds there Two Toes, I can hardly wait for the seasonal runoff to subside here in Colorado to go try your rock moving method and see if I can find some gold.
Thanks for another video Gary, I really enjoy them when you post them up, as well as many others of course. Glad you mentioned the fine gold, I was gonna ask about that 😎Jeff from the Tampa Bay area 🌴😎🇺🇸😎🌴
Heck ya that was AU-SOME. Great job Gary that was definitely worth moving those boulders was hard work I’m sure had to be close to 3 grams with the fines included can’t wait to see a return trip thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏻👊🏻
Love your show brother! May I ask you a question? I live on Bly mountain near Bonanza Oregon. I have plenty of time on my hands and need a Hobbie like this. I can't afford to travel to far and was wondering if you lived in this area would you bother prospecting this area? I'm thinking that I want to try the Sycan river!? I've also run a Garrett 250 over parts of this mountain before and could not believe the hits i was getting could be gold hits even tho my detector was set for gold finds! I never cleaned any of the material because I just assumed it probably wasn't gold!? Thanks man!🙏
I spent some time in Klamath Falls Oregon back in the 70's, I went to college there. I did not get the opportunity to do any prospecting. The difference between metal detectors that are designed to find gold and coin machines is, gold detectors have a much better ability to cancel out the very mineralized ground. As a general rule if the detector is not designed to find gold it will work very poorly in the very mineralized ground where you find gold,
Thank you for all the videos! New to prospecting and was having a hell of a time finding gold watched a few of your videos learned how to read a creek and low and behold first time out I found some gold just flower gold so far but I know it's there now and when the water gets a little lower I'm pretty sure I'll find a little larger pieces. So thanks again! I'd still be moving dirt for no reason I'm sure
Watching this makes me wonder. When it comes to moving boulders to search under them, I would think lugging in heavy metal chains to a work site is an old school approach. Unchanged from before there was synthetic fibers. Newer school would be using synthetic fiber ropes and straps which would be lighter for the equivalent breaking strength and length. For example, A 50 ft length of chain rated at 20,000 lb loading capacity would weigh far more (imo) than 50 ft equivalent strength synthetic rope or strap. Being lighter for a given strength and length it would take less work to tote that in and out. Also, the effort required to work that come along would be far easier if configured with a block and tackle between it and the bolder. It would require a easy system (method) to unload and reset but that is not a game stopper and the reduced effort might over all could prove a better way to work smarter vs harder. Are these flawed observations or am I missing something?
As soon as the rock rolls over on the rope - its junk. The rocks take there toll on the chains, rope and straps just can't handle the abuse. I'm with ya on luging the chains around - not fun.
Another great video to start off not only the morning, but also the week. Thanks so much. And a question... since you ran out of water, have you considered carrying a "Life Straw" water filter or something similar with you? They work great and sure are a lot lighter than packing in water.
I really love your videos. I have a beginners question though that as far as I know you have not addressed. When you mention doing research on spots to see the type of gold, and how much they found....how do you do that? Ive learned to use MLRS to stay off claims and read old papers on general areas but how do you research old info on specific areas?
Love to see you out there doing what you love! Fab video! Also how are the chickens? Had a friend up in Tuolumne who kept chickens, & she named one of her roosters after you. So I always think of that rooster whenever I hear "Two Toes"! 🐓🤣
Hi Gary, My husband watches every episode and is a longtime subscriber. I want to get him a new metal detector for Father’s Day. He prospects in the Mojave desert and longs to go up and prospect in the motherlode. What metal detector would you recommend for both areas. He has a GMT by whites now. I would really appreciate some input as I have no idea what to get him. He is torn between the pulse induction and the mine lab gold monster. Thank You very much, Danyel Arnold

Your a legend Garry…. Love your videos!
We are due over to the north west USA in August from the Uk.. hopefully covid don’t stop the next adventure
Nice gold Gary--Bring more water next time.
Thank you Gary, I’m always learning from your videos.
Great video!! Always enjoy mondays with the goat!
You were rewarded for your hard work!
Always a nice spread there Gary

Have you tried carrying a small water purification setup? It would beat going thirsty next to a river. Have a great day.
Hello~👋 Thanks for sharing my friend 🥳 Have a nice day & stay safe. God bless you always 🥰🙏💕🍀🫒
Nice little haul of chunky gold, would have been nicer if the boulder would have moved itself, lol
Champ Gary. Keep it coming. :)
Great video,as usual. The crevice tool is working great. From AZ.
Can you maybe do a video on small, slower moving creeks with small gold? I live in a gold bearing area with lots of small creeks.
Your reading my mind. If the weather holds, going to head up to a small creek that is dry in the summer and see if I can pick up some gold.
@@TwoToes Awesome. I'll be sluicing some flour gold all weekend myself. It's only my 2nd prospecting trip ever.
@@TwoToes Does the weather look good up there? I'm ready to see you hit up the small creek.
@@goldiswhereyoufindit Looks like no rain for the next week!
Wow. That looks like a lot of fun! Good spot
awesome adventure! thanks
Great video, thanks 2Ts.
Coffin jack if you're an old salty whuch you must be. Thanks!! Don't ever let go of a winch handle, it could go flying.

Yes.... A boulderr net is what it's called.and webbing.

Your a gold monster Gary!!
Where did you get the big pry bar? Thanks again for your help!!!!
Hey, Gary! How 'bout those creek water levels?
You should send that lil,nugget to me garry so I can check to see if its gold or not.lol...great video
wow gary ,you have found target city .great video
Jeff would say: "I knew it! Can't let you go on your own or you come back with oodles of gold!" :D
Always !!!!!!
Great video! Curious to see how much lead you get over the season.
which detector did u use in this video? great video great gold.
Good morning
Great video on moving boulders! Great gold too!!
How'd you get the nickname Two Toes?

Very cool , im at point I need to know this 👍
moons coming up-gary- we still have targets , were not goin anywhere. lol
Pay dirt piled up for sluicing? Call it a premonition, but I think there was gold in that there pay dirt. I hope there will be video
Hello Garry
Awesome video what kind of detector is that is it hard for a Newby to use?
thanks
Great video. Be careful. I still have to give you the Dredge video.
Just watched the other end of this video on Jeff's channel! Nice 👌 day with your buddy!
I'm pulling a ton of black sand balls / beads where im at do you save those & if so do you have vid best way to prosses ?
Love to see you out there doing what you love! Fab video!

Looked like a good day to be turning boulders.

Must've lost a few chains back in day mate?
what detector do you recommend, I can't afford the 3k$ variety your using.

Good day Gary, I see you’re wearing a new sweatshirt. I’ve been dying to buy one, can you make an extra large please?
👍🤠👍
cool vid!!
Cheers for the video Gary spot looks like it’s holding a 4g nugget for u to find
Like listening to my grandpa
A good winch will keep a man healthy. Did I spell that right? Would love to be there in body on one of those adventures. Thanks again.
Can’t remember ever watching you slush for gold
Gary saying Hey to Gary
Personal question:
What DO you eat for lunch?
Use a pipe to winch! Save your back
Think of the fishing weights you can make. Time to make a fishing video.
good morning
Please, turn the threshold up to maximum. Your detector is blanking the audio, killing me!
