Biggest gold I ever found was 8.36 grams... in a NGC holder... in an envelope addressed to me. I have been interested in getting into paydirt but just haven't pulled the trigger yet.
That's pretty excellent, can't go wrong with a 150% ROI! I recently put a 9 gram nugget into a .5 gram guarantee bag of Expert from kleshgold - not sure if that bag sold yet?
@@Klesh oh man... Whoever gets that bad boy is going to freak out. Lol. If it were me I'd prob cry. Haha. Finances went from 📈 to 📉 way too quickly. Been a rough year. Anyway, thank you for sharing your tips and tricks, and for giving away that to someone very lucky! It's really going to make their day or longer. 🙂
I don't know how much work it would be or if anyone else would be interested in watching it. But a video similar to this where you don't pan in the field but bring back more dirt and sluice it I would like. Something about sluicing I really enjoy watching especially when its gathered as opposed to a pay dirt purchased. I think its just the larger amounts and seeing what you get at the end. Love the videos, keep up the good work.
This is really exciting. Because I’m driving to Colorado tomorrow. Going to visit friends in Boulder. I will be doing some gold panning while I’m there. I would be thrilled to find a picker like that.
@@jamescollins9121 hi James. I’m going to have to plan another trip totally devoted to gold prospecting. I was visiting friends in Boulder who I grew up with, and hadn’t seen in many years. They were excited about me coming to visit and had made all kinds of plans for us to do while I was there. So I didn’t have time to pan for gold. We had a great time though!
Nice picker. Definitely worth doing some more looking in that area. Next time bring dynamite 🧨. Just kidding of course but that would make for some great vlogs. Love your channel.
Even if I wasn’t into the treasure hunting aspects of Klesh’s videos I’d be watching. The places he goes are so beautiful. Colorado especially is just so incredibly stunning.
That was a super sweet spot! I drove up there this morning. Beautiful drive up coal creek canyon! I was about 20 min. too late to get the Klesh Krumbs. I did however find some decent gold. Thanks a lot Shane!
@@lankywhiteguy Ill be out of state until around the 25th - Maybe after that if the snow doesn't hit. That place is very high elevation, i was surprised it wasn't covered in snow when I visited the other day
Kevin's book rules man! Wish I was home in Golden more to be able to explore. Sweet location and beautiful Late fall in Colorado, get it while you can!
My sister just came back from there a few weeks ago, she said she wants to move there now lol. I've yet to leave the east coast but one day I will! And Colorado is stop number 1.
I am from Indiana ☺️ I just got back home within the hour. I did hit Manitou Springs for shopping, and the cave dwellings, a couple parks for hiking, Garden of the Gods, and my friend took me on a tour of Fort Carson. My kids and I had a blast! First time I went out there I also got to ride out to Buena Vista. I am ready to move myself 🤣
@@TheMamaPowell Heck yeah you had a great time then. It is beautiful country, and as long as you aren't from California you are always welcome! haha. You know Indiana has some amazing gold if you are close to the southwest corner!!!
Shane, I don’t comment much, but I appreciate your videos and try to watch as many as I can. You’ve got me ready to make the drive up North! Take care sir
I sure wish I would have been watching your videos while I still lived there. I'm learning so much...that I can't use in Florida. LOL But I'm sure enjoying watching you have the fun.
Another great and interesting video. It’s been great watching your channel while I been out do to medical conditions. Your videos have been keeping my mind off of my pain, thanks so much. Cheers from Davis California
I live on the South fork of the American River and pan at least once a week. I too bring home material but run it through a Gold Hog Multi Sluice. A typical good 2-3 hour day for us is .5 to 1.5 Grams. Great video.
I drove up there today, I did not find Klesh's paydirt (but I didn't look very hard) but I did fill a 2 gallon bucket with crevice material and ran another bucket through my sluice.
did you find any gold? i know its been quite a few months but I am in Boulder now thinking about starting gold prospecting (specifically panning) just not sure exactly where here in boulder i can legally pan or dig.
Great day out enjoying life fam. Everyone going to be out their trying to find that paydirt bag fam. Nice au fam. Keep on digging fam. Always living the dream. Gold squad out!!!
This was really fun..I liked watching you smack out the rocks..and the water suckout thingy was good. I couldn't help but wonder...is there bears in the forest?
If you remember your spots. Go back to spot 1 probably a small pay streak in a line. Same with the big flake. Also look into feather and wedges. You’ll be splitting bedrock in no time. Good day from 530 mining.
Traveling around Colorado. Out here from Florida vacationing. Found a little color digging in Fairplay. Weather did not cooperate around Cashe Creek. We are now in Durango headed to New Mexico. Looking for suggestions on where to prospect next. This video is great. Thank you.
That's why I always wash off the bigger pieces before throwing them back - yes I'd bet a lot of that (maybe even the picker) was stuck to the big chunks.
Have you watched any of Levi's videos, Tassie Boys Prospecting? He's a good sort. Oh, thanks for the heads up about importing pay dirt into Australia. (One of your other videos) that saved me a bit of money.
That was AWSOME Shane Bloody ripper flake too ay Watching you shake lol lol Geez you would die with me in WA I was getting from half gram to 7-1/2 grammars lol I just love seeing it and finding it So much fun ay Nice vid mate cheers 🍻 CrouchOz
Hey Shane one of these days we'll have to get together so I can show you my Colorado Boulder (1.52 gram nugget) I found in clear creek down stream from Blackhawk ... Keep up the great videos and hope to see you on a creek one day ... Happy Digging .. Don E.
Insane bro! Thats some of the best colorado gold I have seen! Did you get a weigh up in the end? Surely that big picker would weigh a fair bit, my guess is 0.08 of a gram for the picker .
Was there today Oct. 9th 2022. Couldn’t find it. I was in the right spot it was a fun time trying to get across the river. It was a bit high. It either was found or washed away there were some big boulders pushed into the spot.
Very interesting vid today, but i have a question to you, klesh. I have been a little bit shocked when you threw away that big quarz things. Wouldn't it be better to take it with you, crush it and then pan again? Greets from good old germany ;)
Hi Bytescout, great question. So there isn't any evidence or history of lode mining in this area, therefore crushing the quartz likely would not produce any free mill gold. If I were in a historical lode mining area, then yes I'd be crushing the quartz looking for that free mill gold. Have a beer for me in Germany!
A buddy had a claim not too far from there, up on Left Hand Creek. need to keep eye for free mill in that Rollinsville,Goldhill/Ward area. that "picker" is right off that quartz, A lot of that ground has claims. don't jump.
That is the most gold I've seen you find in Colorado. Well at least at your usual places. Nice spot Shane. I call your hammer a sheet metal hammer.Iv'e used them for 40 years hammering duct work together. The sides are flat so you can hammer the pittsburgs over and the square end you drive the quarter in. hem into the pittsburg. Excellent tool for what you are doing. Awesome!
What's the biggest gold you've ever found (in Paydirt or otherwise)?
Biggest gold I ever found was 8.36 grams... in a NGC holder... in an envelope addressed to me. I have been interested in getting into paydirt but just haven't pulled the trigger yet.
My wonderful wife, Mrs. Dragon, Linda ♥
Got a 2.58. Nugget from gold bay. One day I'll find it on the river lol. Still watching fam. Gold squad out!!!
1.89 grams in paydirt
Most have found it 1.5 grams. Last time I was out actually⛏🏴
3.08 gram nugget in a Toms 1oz guaranteed bag of paydirt. Great video, really nice little picker.

When I go gold panning I do the same thing bring it all homw and pan it out. Thank you for sharing all the best Cheers from Canada!
That is some sweet gold! That picker is HUGE for Colorado! Thanks for the shout out to Kevin!
Nice gold Shane👍🏻 Keep up the great work⛏🏴
I love that you explain where you are. I think you got the best videos about gold prospecting in Colorado. Cheers
Happy to share, there's plenty of room for everyone

There's gold everywhere in Colorado. You can literally pan out fish ponds and find it
thank you so much for doing it outside and letting me learn it every time!
Got the day off work today, and I’m binging Shane’s channels. I’m looking forward to getting out and hunting for gold myself soon enough. 👍
You are giving away my secrets 🤣🤣🤣 hope to see you out there some time man!! Heavy pans!!!
That's a huge piece of gold for Colorado. Grats.
Awesome wild gold Shane I love to see the smiles for miles
Hiding the Krums is like mixing Geocaching and Prospecting. Goldcaching 😀
You actually did a good thing Shane!! You created cracks that will collect for you until next time!! 🤓 Great idea and excellent video as always
That's a GREAT little nugget for where you're panning!! Happy Panning!
That's awesome! Just that feeling of finding a piece you feel a d pick up! It makes the addiction all the more! You will go back..lol,⛏️⛏️⛏️
04:15. Wise words. Always good to have a clean crack when you are in the wilderness...
Thanks Shane. When ya got the yabbie pump i thought i was down under with Vo-gus. Knew there was bigger gold in CO.
Love the new upload can’t wait to finish it
Thanks for showing us a great video on crevice gold hunting ...
Nice picker. Definitely worth doing some more looking in that area. Next time bring dynamite 🧨. Just kidding of course but that would make for some great vlogs. Love your channel.
Great video and info. That was awesome. Thanks for sharing Shane⚒⚒👍👍
Shane is back at the creek. I love it.
The Henderson pump is handy.
Big surprise. Not a bad result.
We only have flowers here gold * laugh
Right on!! I do love me your out-in-the-field episodes! Lets Go!
exakt that thougt about, 16:05
realy great video and cool for that picker ;)
Even if I wasn’t into the treasure hunting aspects of Klesh’s videos I’d be watching. The places he goes are so beautiful. Colorado especially is just so incredibly stunning.
They are gorgeous! I'm from his hometown too and its amazing to be in our backyard!
Thanks and yes I try to make my videos "easy on the eyes" thanks for watching!
It's always nice to get deep inside a crevice lol. Thanks for the vid
Nice find ! That is some great looking gold. Thank you for the video.
That was a super sweet spot! I drove up there this morning. Beautiful drive up coal creek canyon! I was about 20 min. too late to get the Klesh Krumbs. I did however find some decent gold. Thanks a lot Shane!
The biggest gold nugget ive found was in the mail from Klesh coin channel its 1.16gr. wrapped around a quarts crystal. : ) awesome thanks Shane.
Great Video Shane keep them coming
That was a surprise to see a flake like that in Colorado!
It's like the only place I've found with bedrock/crevices within driving distance! You gotta come up sometime we'll smash rocks!
*edit - place I found - (from kevin's book)!
@@Klesh next week?
@@lankywhiteguy Ill be out of state until around the 25th - Maybe after that if the snow doesn't hit. That place is very high elevation, i was surprised it wasn't covered in snow when I visited the other day
@@Klesh it did snow up high yesterday or day before.
Love being part of the 42% 😂😂
Kevin's book rules man! Wish I was home in Golden more to be able to explore. Sweet location and beautiful Late fall in Colorado, get it while you can!
Couldn't agree more!
Blummin eck, I found my tools! 🤣
That was certainly a good day. A definite spot to return to.
You could find your own paydirt too!
Cheers Mr 🐕
Awesome Shane! Always enjoy seeing you boots on the ground out in the field!🍻
A good old Klesh in a creek video!
Can't wait for the outcome.
Awesome video Shane can't wait till you come out to Wisconsin
Another fantastic video Shane!! Thanks for sharing ✅😁👍👍🏴☠️
That was really cool of you to leave a random bag of paydirt out there for someone to find or treasure hunt mate
I love that you call it a "yabby pump". :)
Awesome man! always adrenaline filled when you find something like that and dont expect it.
Nice picker. Two 👍👍
Have fun and take care and take it easy and enjoy it
I’m actually traveling to Colorado Springs for vacation this week! I can’t wait to explore more of your beautiful state!

Go to Manitou Springs, amazing shops and really cool atmosphere right below Pikes Peak!

You found a sweet spot. Nice work
A clean crack when out in the wilderness is a great thing!
nice gold thank you for sharing the adventure
Dude that was good idea think this one is my new favorite vid of yours ya gotta go back and do er again lol 😁😁👍👍👍🍻✌
Keep Digging DEEPER Airborne!
Jp 😆 🤣 😂
If you released a 1 hour long video of just you panning I’d watch every second of it.
Looks like a nice place I'll put it on my visit list. Thanks
Love these crevicing videos
Shane, I don’t comment much, but I appreciate your videos and try to watch as many as I can. You’ve got me ready to make the drive up North! Take care sir
Awesome awesome another great video of a outing and knowledge where to look and what to do thank you
this is super exciting Klesh!!!!
I sure wish I would have been watching your videos while I still lived there. I'm learning so much...that I can't use in Florida. LOL But I'm sure enjoying watching you have the fun.
My Florida episode of my 50 states of Treasure series should give you some ideas
Great job as always. It’s been a minute since I’ve watched a video, but I’ve definitely missed seeing them.
Another great and interesting video. It’s been great watching your channel while I been out do to medical conditions. Your videos have been keeping my mind off of my pain, thanks so much. Cheers from Davis California
Hey Donnie get well soon!
@@Klesh thanks 🙏
Love your video beautiful country all new tools too except for crusty rusty with respect
Very good area!
Nice finds!
I live on the South fork of the American River and pan at least once a week. I too bring home material but run it through a Gold Hog Multi Sluice. A typical good 2-3 hour day for us is .5 to 1.5 Grams. Great video.
Sounds like a good spot! 2-3 hours here rarely gets enough to weigh on a scale.
Awesome result Shane. Im betting your going back
Thank you for the video Sir. Love seeing God’s County. I wish you the best of luck in your gold hunting. Please stay safe and healthy out there.
Great video!
I drove up there today, I did not find Klesh's paydirt (but I didn't look very hard) but I did fill a 2 gallon bucket with crevice material and ran another bucket through my sluice.

I was just there! Did pretty well
I do wish I could go look for the bag of krums good on you!!!
If you can, use splitting wedges. It will make your job easier.
New Subscriber here and fellow prospector. Awesome video and content. Looking forward to going back through your videos.!
Thanks for the sub!
This was really fun..I liked watching you smack out the rocks..and the water suckout thingy was good.
I couldn't help but wonder...is there bears in the forest?
Yes but the Bears aren't the concern, it's the Mountain Lions that attack more often.
@@Klesh oooh...didn't think of that
These videos remind me why gold is so darn expensive. LOL
Nice Fjällräven shirt! :)

Dang!!! I seriously just got back down to Golden from up there! 🤦♂️
Nice spot ya found! Awesome gold Bro! Makes ya do the Gomer Pyle! LOL {}
So does that mean that there was a lot of flower stuck to the bigger rocks that you threw back
That's why I always wash off the bigger pieces before throwing them back - yes I'd bet a lot of that (maybe even the picker) was stuck to the big chunks.
Do you take the led out of circulation before you dump the rest out
Yeah I have a mason jar full of lead I found
Have you watched any of Levi's videos, Tassie Boys Prospecting? He's a good sort. Oh, thanks for the heads up about importing pay dirt into Australia. (One of your other videos) that saved me a bit of money.

I just love seeing it and finding it
So much fun ay
Nice vid mate cheers 🍻

That would be pretty cray for sure thanks for commenting Crouch !
need to go back and get more....
Hi Shane. That's cool you left that packet of gold out there for somebody. Btw, BTC back up to $61K. Making another run. Hope you are doing good.
I thought you were not allowed to pan for gold in boulder county?

I have not made it up there, what stash is that? You can email me kleshkrums@gmail.com please
I did that’s where I told you how to find it rather than on the public forum. I’ll resend it.
We are staying at a cottage just above this cordenance do you know if anyone has found the treasure you left?
