  • Join me as I travel to the “Gold Fever Prospecting” camp on the 40 Mile River in Alaska. A great camp to get great gold. Oh, and great food also!

    That's neat, always loved watching that show on the Outdoor channel, the Ol' Buzzard was quite a character! Always wanted to do one of their gold camps👍

      I went to that gold camp in 2005 with the Massey brothers, it was in Nome.
      This is a different camp near the Canadian border with smaller groups and much more gold. I’ll be going back there next month and will have a great video on the place.
      Thanks for watching 👍

    Nothing can beat Alaska for scenery! I lived there for 7 years, and I miss it every day! So glad you had fun on your trip and found a little SHINY!😊💖

    Wow, this brings back memories. I was up in Chicken (Summer of '82) with a team of 8 miners looking for our fortune. Didn't get rich except for the memories !!

      Same here. We went back again. Didn’t get rich, but had a great time

      Midwest Dave's Gold Prospecting We didn’t get much, but had fun. The river was flooded and we were only able to dredge one day. Higher up the bank. Were gonna try again next year.

      That is what real memories are about anyway. Did you catch in grayling ? I didn't. But young Mat sure did

      Nobody was able to fish. The water was moving so fast.

    Brotha, even with my 4 inch keene dredge it is work, work, work!!! Like living off grid north of Fairbanks, gold is work, everybody wants to do it, but it is hard and very few do it. Glad you got to experience a bit if what I live everyday for the last 10 years. Half while still in uniform doing 1SG duties. Give me a shout if you want to use the dredge in a decent spot i can give directions to. I am selling it to my son, so it will be here. Great vid.
