There are only certain days it's legal to breath air the rest of the time hold your breath. I was free until I turned 5 and they made me go to school. Lol
Pan where ever you want...it’s a free country and you have rights for the taxes you pay...why do we listen to the government who doesn’t listen to us as a people...ask yourself that. Fear of jail time...get a good lawyer
A lawyer costs 10k per case. Fk you mean go do it anyway? These cops don't give a fk about you. To them it's a ticket or fine or arrest. To you time lost, thousands of dollars lost, criminal record... great advice....
The law is in place basically to keep from having hoards of people looking for gold and destroying the ecosystem on public land. I’m sure if you venture out in isolated areas and keep your project simple you’ll be able to fly under the radar, obviously discretion is key.
To gold pan around there I have been there with a rock club years ago. We chose a more narrow part of the stream and looked for the black sand to pan in. Was alot of fun.
A nugget was found in centre county. Lancaster is a good location to pan. In Pennsylvania you can pan on private land only with the land owner permission (I suggest you get it written on paper). Panning and sluicing is permitted but, dredging is not in Pennsylvania. Legally your able to pan on state and national park land but, you'll be told otherwise. Any minerals, etc, even if on your own land mined for profit requires a mining permit. Contact mining clubs/groups for info.
Just so you guys know if you get a letter for the county on prospecting gold in PA creeks and rivers you are allowed to on public lands I have a letter stating that I am allowed to prospect for gold and other minerals in public lands just not private land you need a written statement saying you can prospect in PA. I'm not getting in a debate about it because I have a letter stating I can prospect for gold in PA creeks and rivers, directly from dauphin county.
@@wtyeager Absolutely not! I have never found gold in SW pa, especially not near Kelly station, allegheny river pool 6, hydroelectric dam side in the gravels. Rosebud mining strictly forbids any entrance on their property!
@@wtyeager On a serious note. Yes, there's gold around. Ive found some on the riverbank on my above mentioned location. Plenty of river gravel to work through. But!!!! Theres not alot to be found, super tiny flour gold and dust and you have to process a bunch of material. I have a goldhog sluice and it takes about 5 buckets of classified (1/8 inch classifier) material to get even a few small specks. However, its in our area. Just be ready to pan or sluice out a bunch of iron and lead shot lol. Good luck! Also, Rosebud does own the area, but they allow activities, just no overnight camping, but you can nightfish or hang out at night.
That's good. How did you go about getting it? Did you just contact your county? Did they have a special channel for you to go through? I'm interested in coming out that way to do some panning.
I’m from West Chester Pa and My team and I have found 2 ounces of Gold in the Brandywine river in East Bradford. not saying the exact location though! Thanks for the upload, maybe we’ll go to York this weekend
I just received a pan in the mail. I am in SW PA. I took it to a local stream. Kept my eye out for quartz and such. Swear to God I found a teeny tiny piece of flour gold. I am taking it to work. We have microscope cameras and even an electron scanning microscope. Will confirm. I don't think anyone could get rich doing this BUT it was tons of fun! I am a rock nerd so I just loved playing in the creek plus I can remove any garbage I come across. Next time I will take a proper trash bag with me to pick up the junk I come across. I made sure to put back the rocks as they were as best I could. Any day outside in the creek and mud and rocks beats sitting in front of the TV!
I admire your respect for the laws and your diligence in researching every detail of the places you go. That's why you are one of my favorite channels to watch. Stay thirsty my friend:)
Hey there, do you think there is gold in ancient river beds along the Lackawanna river? I was digging footers and found 8 foot layers of oxidized river rock packed with pyrite, gray ash looking stuff and sand. Then around 15 ft were large boulders but I have no excavation equipment. cheers
I don't know enough about that area to be sure. But there generally needs to have been volcanic or sub-volcanic activity in the area at some point in the past or what is called Igneous Intrusions.
I had just read about a man looking for gold in pa. It was Lycoming County Industrial Heritage and showed a man working a sluice on loyalsock creek where he had a claim. I'm amazed!
Here in upstate New York, gold and silver and any other precious minerals belongs to the state. They just do it because they don't want the environment turned upside down by shotty mining. Would be nice if we could just go out there and pan some creeks and find a few nuggets but it's just not allowed.
Hello, great video, even though I am only seeing it for the first time now. I was wondering what part of the park you were in when filming? Or would you recommend another location there, if someone was to try their hand at a pan or two? Thanks again for the video. I am just getting started in looking for places to pan and I live in Media, PA so this place is somewhat local to me.
STEPHEN MARTINI When I was a kid back in the 50’s and 60’s, we panned a few specks on several feeder brooks that fed into Bull Creek in Fawn Township. Allegheny Co.
I live between Halifax and carsonville.when I was younger I fount a beautiful piece of quartz where I live now,they say where there's quartz there's gold
shawn17032 a bit south of Harrisburg, there is a scout camp and there are tons of quartz, and there are little veins of shiny stuff, but it wasn't gold. But they were very tiny veins, but that is true!
RippinChips . I'm still going to find a place an just try looking for some gold. just to see what it's like. I now I won't find anything but it will be fun. yes unfortunately they're all communists.
thi cliff , thar is d Gold, still can't sleep 4.30am 2nd December (Brian) so much nmy head about Pennsylvania Pa. Yeah n Christmas when i hope to get to PA I Will kiss d ground d Trees I'm on Fire right now but covid is stopping so much But i know it wud take Massive Efforts to get to yeh PA This for me Is Larger than Life
As far as know,, it is totaly legal to prospect in pa but State game lands may be a no no,,,, panning and simple gravity fed slothes are allowed, in most of the state
illegal? Not if no one sees you..and what Can they do? Have FUN. PS..I had luck in upper manatawny creek, and the tulpehocken up past reading. AND there are geodes to be found in little Oley by where the old school was.
Really? Dude ur actin like your on parole lmao. Ill pan for gold all day and ill tell them to prove that i wasnt just lookin for my earring and tell them to f off!!! Lol
Are you really into haunted this and that or just doing it to appease? Hate to see you do something you are not into. Your audience began with you based on your name, "the Woodsman" and speaking for myself.....am content to go with you into the "woods" to see nature and learn how to hike and the joy of doing it.
because PA is a very liberal state,... they want to tell you when you can breath,... so what makes you think youll be able to get alittle pocket change without their permission?

have you ever had any encounter of anything strange or out of the ordinary on your ventures?other then ghosts?
I prospect all the time in PA. Just do it. No one bothers me. Its just a hobby.

That's cool.
Have you ever heard of any gold in southwestern pa? Allegheny county?

I didnt realize you have been doing this for more than 6 years. Keep up the good work.

Alement67 there most likely is gold in that area. I find it along the creeks and river around Wilkes Barre

You can still do it
If u found that gold I would have panned for more,keep panning love your videos

I had NO idea there is gold in PA. I learn a LOT from your wonderful videos.
If someone finds gold do you think they are going to scream it from the mountain tops.
Excuse, You're not panning for gold, you're asking your dinner plate after chow.
You should make an updated video to this now that you got more knowledge on this topic.
Did you keep the gold?
Gold is from God, and it should be free to anyway one.
Did you ever watch Codys Lab.
He lives out in the desert in USA. He looks for gold and lead and other things.
Copper
If they can tax it, then it belongs to the govt
Is there anywhere in Pittsburgh pa where you would recommend I can find some
Some say there is gold along the creeks leading into Lake Arthur and Mcconnell's Mills along Slippery Rock stream.

When I was a kid back in the 50’s and 60’s, we panned a few specks on several feeder brooks that fed into Bull Creek in Fawn Township. Allegheny Co.
Where did you find those laws?
I live between Halifax and carsonville.when I was younger I fount a beautiful piece of quartz where I live now,they say where there's quartz there's gold
shawn17032 a bit south of Harrisburg, there is a scout camp and there are tons of quartz, and there are little veins of shiny stuff, but it wasn't gold. But they were very tiny veins, but that is true!
Justin Maxwell is it the oneby dillsburg? there is a stream that comes from scout camp......
Scott P yes! Camp Tuckahoe! And the tiny tiny stream that was dammed up to make that pond up there.
Justin Maxwell my dad lived on that road and that stream was right behind his home :) wish he still was alive and living there today!
@@jtkm those tiny shiny veins were probably pyrite
Pennsylvania has to many law's. unfortunately. also corrupt county officials and city council members. Thanks for the video enjoyed it.
Pa. isn't too bad, very gun friendly if you consider the surrounding states, that I appreciate.
Steven Nolan . I have no plans on leaving pa. yes it's beautiful where I live. near the conemaugh gap.
Pa is a commonwealth that’s why there communists 🤣
RippinChips . I'm still going to find a place an just try looking for some gold. just to see what it's like. I now I won't find anything but it will be fun. yes unfortunately they're all communists.

I have planned for gold in northern York county on my friend's father's property. Did not find anything, but did have fun! Cindy Schmied
As far as know,, it is totaly legal to prospect in pa but State game lands may be a no no,,,, panning and simple gravity fed slothes are allowed, in most of the state
What's your source of info?
lets be real if the government does not want you to do it there is a reason and its because there is gold why else would they say not to?
This guy must have bought Jerry Jones book, or he has my stolen copy
illegal? Not if no one sees you..and what Can they do? Have FUN. PS..I had luck in upper manatawny creek, and the tulpehocken up past reading. AND there are geodes to be found in little Oley by where the old school was.
I think that law is really old, and i dont think they really enforce it like that.
we have silver in elk county
HEY!!! I LIVE IN YORK!!! is there actually gold?
Sounds like ridiculous rules for panning gold!!!
Yeah, that land was stolen by the county from my family years ago.
Really? Dude ur actin like your on parole lmao. Ill pan for gold all day and ill tell them to prove that i wasnt just lookin for my earring and tell them to f off!!! Lol
