I have a buddy who prospects all over, just not really in WV. He's been to Alaska and California, also some of the old gold workings around Culpeper/Orange in Virginia. Any kind of information about SWV would be greatly appreciated my good sir.

    I am in Putnam county West Virginia, wanted to ask you, have you ever seen any large Sasquatch tracks around those creeks and grounds around fresh water areas? Also should I have water traveling that fast accross the sluice or should a place a big rock in front of the stream to slow it down?
