nice work guys this is a great example of why I love your videos No matter what conditions or how much u find you guys are always smiling keep it up thanks again
utahavalanch Thanks for watching. Neither did I, (as you can tell by my reaction when I panned that 1st nugget, and then saw each following nugget). We have big things in the works and hope to eventually be able to share these experiences with others. spreading to passion is what we're all about. It was by chance that I met this claim-owner who is seriously one of the nicest guys. As things fall into place there will be opportunities for others to join us near this particular location. Stay tuned!
Really nice nugs there Utah, looks like a nice family outing. Thanks for posting. I am really enjoying watching you prospecting. I like the blue pan with the really close riffles. Like the highbanker made with the vent tubing. See some of the nugs from my last panning trip in my avatar.
Great video. I spent my time on the henries years ago bringing buckets home to sluice but recently got a nice dry washer and hoping to do some good in my backyard that is the southen desert. I hear good things about fish lake forest too. Keep it up and May there always be color in your pan!
Hey Thanks Chris! I appreciate the comment. I hope you have a great year finding some gold. I have a few trips planned this summer that I'm really excited about so I can't wait to finally upload a couple more videos. Thanks for watching bud.
UtahProspector I always love watching gold prospectors. We have a creek that has really decent gold (for Michigan) and by really decent we will classify a bucket of material and get 4 pieces of flour gold, and 1 decent flake. On the best day I had seven 100 mesh pieces and three 50-60 mesh maybe.
UtahProspector Yeap! We dug all the way down to this beautiful solid clay (young bedrock) and we sucked that surface clean as a babies bottom. But I will tell you what, we get some very nice color right on the bedrock. It is a ravine, so there is only one way for the water to go. ,
I just finished watching the video, and I must say that I was surprised to see the small nuggets that you've found, especially in that location! Contrary to everyone's belief, there is loads of gold here in Utah, the only drawback is that it's mostly gold dust and not very profitable. This is definitely a task for a hobbyist. Thanks for sharing your video guys! Great job!
Robert Emmons hey thanks Robert! I appreciate you watching and commenting. That was a great trip and I hope it gives others hope that finding the yellow is within grasp if you really want it bad enough. Thanks and happy hunting.
Ya it’s an old one for sure lol. Still thanks for watchin. It is central west desert of Utah that’s all I can say as it is not my claim and still isn’t. I will tell you that the central Utah prospectors club (group on FB) has a claim not too far from this one and it’s killer. Their membership is cheap and they’re a great club.
UtahProspector I'm such an idiot...I watched this video in full, I swear, and somehow I missed seeing the vac and references to it how many times? Good grief...well, glad you're on it, keep on diggin'!
UtahProspector Yes indeed you are Ryan is signed up but I never see him ...the radio show is on goldprospectorsspace.com ever sunday night 5:30 our time great guest and prizes over 5,000 members
Love the videos. How would someone who's new to gold panning get started? Do you have to find someone with a claim, or can you pan anywhere on state land?
Quick question and just getting into prospecting. Can you find nugs in utah or is it just fine gold. Aren't our .mountains and geographical areas similar to California
I don't know a lot about gold prospecting but I'm hoping to learn more, what's the area for that claim so I might be able to get a claim somewhere near haha
I have gold hunted for many years never worked so hard for so little in all my life once you see those little nuggets you get the fever even though it takes a pile of them to really make money I have some really nice equipment where is your claim at maybe we could team up.
West Coast Gold Prospecting hey thanks for watching!! If I remember correctly I think it was about 2.6 grams which we split evenly. It was a pretty productive trip, that’s one of my favorite spots. Thanks for the comment. Hope you have a great 2019!
+Jon M Yes, we have a Gold Bug Pro that tells us where the hot spots are and thats where we try to concentrate our digging. Yes the nuggets are big enough though that detecting them is certainly possible. You in Utah?
+UtahProspector Hi Unfortunately not i'm across the pond on the South Coast of England but thank you for your quick reply and thanks again for your video's. Looks like you have great fun prospecting would love to try it one day.
Not sure if you’ll check comments on videos this old but I’ve been wanting to start getting into gold panning. I live up in Logan UT and was wondering if you knew of anyone up here who could point me in the right direction or give me pointers.
Yes I can. Join my FB group - Rocky Mountain Prospecting and detecting and make a post in there and we'll get you in contact with guys that pan up in Logan area. thanks for watching and I hope 2018 treats you well!
Thank you for your videos. What is the name of your gold prospecting club in Utah ? I went to utahgold.org and it takes me to a website where they sell gold, not a gold prospecting club. Let me know. Thanks.
I guess the website is currently down. Best thing to do would be to join our FB group 'rocky mountain detecting and prospecting' for now to keep up on group outings and stuff like that. Thanks for watching!
i love how htped thwy are over a small nugget yet i watched a guy dig up a 3 oz nugget whule metal detecting and he was like " theres that bugger" and nothing else
Joaquin Gill lol ya. I guess it's all about perspective ya know? We like to get excited because it's something that for the 1st time in human history is being seen by a human so it's special that way. The other guys probably just look at melt value which really takes the fun out of it in my opinion. Thanks for watching!
Yes Lewis. As soon as we have a new cut opened up for guests that is the plan. Make sure to subscribe and I'll come out with a new video once we are up and running! You in Utah?
+UtahProspector I need to get your email cause I have found a wire stuck in my a52 mat from af canyon and I'm wondering if you have ever heard of them up there, not even sure if it's gold
you ever allow anyone to vacation and dredge on your claims in Idaho? please contact me if you do or would consider the thought please..good vids..thanks ..
meer Money we sold our Idaho claims. I do know however that there are a few local prospecting clubs in Idaho that sell yearly passes to their claims. I'd google it. Thanks for watching!
It's the same as any other state. Cheapest way is to just google it. Finding a good spot that has gold and hasn't already been claimed is the difficult part. Once that's been done filing isn't too difficult. There are prospect in clubs that own good claims and for a small annual fee (39?) you can dig on all their claims. Utahgold.org is a good one. Stg prospectors is another good one in southern Utah. Thanks for watching man.
They say there no gold in utah but that's what they think just for the fact they don't get up off your butt and go look for it haha. but if there's that much color in that little Hillside have you figured out what it could be to the ton? if you. just saying. got 1.5gm gold to the tone. I'd say expand your claim and try to get full control of it and it wouldn't hurt to check into the mineral rights to. if you have a Public Access Road that runs through the claim you can't condemned that road sucks I know haha I've tried find ways but no luck there unless you go big like kucc did but the cost Millions. but for the future good luck keep it up congratulations.
nice work guys this is a great example of why I love your videos No matter what conditions or how much u find you guys are always smiling keep it up thanks again
Hey thanks man I really appreciate your comment! Thanks for watching and have a good one.
Nice Gold Utah!! Love the setup y'all have going.
Prospector Josh Hey thanks man. Appreciate that coming from you. Thanks for watching.
Looks like you really found a really great spot. I didn't think there was gold that size here in Utah. Congratulations. Nice nuggets.
utahavalanch Thanks for watching. Neither did I, (as you can tell by my reaction when I panned that 1st nugget, and then saw each following nugget).

Stay tuned!
I love how your buddy converted the a52 into a highbanker with the piece of air duct at the top. That's some good ol' fashioned american enginuity!
Prospector Ruby ya he did pretty good didn't he/. Thanks for watching!
Nice work in the hole, looks like you are on to something. Really nice gold. Take us allong for another trip, love watching.
+Poul Christiansen Thanks Poul, appreciate ya watching! We had a good time on this trip. Hopefully 1 or 2 more this year.
Really nice nugs there Utah, looks like a nice family outing. Thanks for posting. I am really enjoying watching you prospecting. I like the blue pan with the really close riffles. Like the highbanker made with the vent tubing. See some of the nugs from my last panning trip in my avatar.

Hey thanks! That was a fun trip. I'm bummed I didn't make it out this year. Hopefully next year. Happy Hunting and thanks for watching.
Great video. I spent my time on the henries years ago bringing buckets home to sluice but recently got a nice dry washer and hoping to do some good in my backyard that is the southen desert. I hear good things about fish lake forest too. Keep it up and May there always be color in your pan!
Hey Thanks Chris! I appreciate the comment. I hope you have a great year finding some gold. I have a few trips planned this summer that I'm really excited about so I can't wait to finally upload a couple more videos. Thanks for watching bud.
Good for you, I can't tell you how you will look back on this time as the happiest times in your life.....
Amazing gold! Please bring us along for more!
***** Thanks, will do! Thanks for watching I really appreciate your viewership :)
UtahProspector I always love watching gold prospectors. We have a creek that has really decent gold (for Michigan) and by really decent we will classify a bucket of material and get 4 pieces of flour gold, and 1 decent flake. On the best day I had seven 100 mesh pieces and three 50-60 mesh maybe.
***** Hey that's not too bad! Do you ever think about digging real deep to see what's below? LIke 2-3 feet down maybe?
UtahProspector Yeap! We dug all the way down to this beautiful solid clay (young bedrock) and we sucked that surface clean as a babies bottom. But I will tell you what, we get some very nice color right on the bedrock. It is a ravine, so there is only one way for the water to go. ,
***** awesome. You should do a video!
Got to love it when a plan comes together!
Dennis Petersen Thanks for watching Dennis! It was a great trip I must admit. How you been doing this year?
Dennis Petersen From your videos it looks like you haven't been doing too bad yourself!
UtahProspector Thanks! Was a little slow earlier with family health issues, but all good now!

Sweet! I'm digging in all the wrong places. Lol. Keep digging.
indyme2 Haha. I'm still waiting for a return to Creek 5!!! That was killer! thanks for watching.
Old video but I'm curious as to were this is in Utah. Looks like central Utah.
Ya it’s an old one for sure lol. Still thanks for watchin. It is central west desert of Utah that’s all I can say as it is not my claim and still isn’t. I will tell you that the central Utah prospectors club (group on FB) has a claim not too far from this one and it’s killer. Their membership is cheap and they’re a great club.
What part of Utah? I travel thru a lot and have no idea where to look. I’m
Used to chunky Oregon gold
Ahhh man I’m jealous I’ve always wanted to prospect in Oregon. This was out in the west desert. Super dry lol.
Man, I'd get a vac out there stat, looks like a great place with rough bedrock! Keep it up!
touchnova Thanks, I think that's why we were so successful. That shop-vac made all the difference. Thanks for watchin I appreciate it!
UtahProspector I'm such an idiot...I watched this video in full, I swear, and somehow I missed seeing the vac and references to it how many times? Good grief...well, glad you're on it, keep on diggin'!
Nice Gold!

Sure man.
Very nice indeed.
+Caleb Bennington thanks for watching Caleb appreciate it.
Hey do you guys rent the equipment out and where is it at in utah
I’m in Salt Lake City and am wanting to start getting out. What do you suggest?
Hey, where is the best spot in Utah to prospect
you should use jet dry in your pan
hello, so where is it OK to gold pan in Utah county or anywhere in Utah. I want to start, but don't know where. please give me some feedback. thanks
I have gold hunted for many years never worked so hard for so little in all my life once you see those little nuggets you get the fever even though it takes a pile of them to really make money I have some really nice equipment where is your claim at maybe we could team up.
Have a couple we frequent, where do you live/usually prospect?
Damn nice job man. What did this end up weighing ?
West Coast Gold Prospecting hey thanks for watching!! If I remember correctly I think it was about 2.6 grams which we split evenly. It was a pretty productive trip, that’s one of my favorite spots. Thanks for the comment. Hope you have a great 2019!
Where r u guus at the book cliffs?
Looks like great fun just wanted to ask if it would pay to use a metal detector in the area to look for larger nuggets?? Great video by the way
+Jon M Yes, we have a Gold Bug Pro that tells us where the hot spots are and thats where we try to concentrate our digging. Yes the nuggets are big enough though that detecting them is certainly possible. You in Utah?
+UtahProspector Hi Unfortunately not i'm across the pond on the South Coast of England but thank you for your quick reply and thanks again for your video's. Looks like you have great fun prospecting would love to try it one day.

Hey thanks for watching bud. Where you viewing from?

Muhammed Emin Kizilkaya not much, someone isn't going to buy that little amount, unless you make it into a bigger piece then no one will buy it
Not sure if you’ll check comments on videos this old but I’ve been wanting to start getting into gold panning. I live up in Logan UT and was wondering if you knew of anyone up here who could point me in the right direction or give me pointers.
Yes I can. Join my FB group - Rocky Mountain Prospecting and detecting and make a post in there and we'll get you in contact with guys that pan up in Logan area. thanks for watching and I hope 2018 treats you well!

Yep not too much lol. Just enough to have fun for the weekend right? Hope you have a great 2021
Man I wish I could get gold but I live in nothern UT
Zagly2323 I live in northern Utah too bro. If you're way north, look up Grouse creek. Guys drywash up there and get good gold too.
If I lived in northern Utah I’d be making some trips to the Uintas or even Idaho.

you ever allow anyone to vacation and dredge on your claims in Idaho? please contact me if you do or would consider the thought please..good vids..thanks ..

Oh my Heck lmao
Lol. Thanks for watching at least.

Hey thanks for watching man. We have done the math, problem is that the golds just in pockets and not consistent. Good luck and happy hunting bro!
so 2 grams for 2 days of work, thats like 70-80 bucks for 16 hours of work.. and 2 people.. hope your not doing it for salery :(
Ha, no not at all. We do it for fun! We barely paid for gas but that's not the point. It's our hobby and we enjoy it. Thanks for watching!

Really! Spent years searching. Thanks for watching!
I’m telling you rn, you’re losing way too much small gold with the way you pan. It hurts to watch
It might look like that on camera but I promise we were panning into the tub that we re-pan at home. Thanks for watching.
