It's Friday

   Well it's finally friday and my saturday plans have been made. Myself and a few others are heading for Lynx creek in the morning, we're meeting at bannie mine road at 8AM and hiking upstream to do some panning.

   Last years winter rains really moved things around up there, and we had a pretty good monsoon this year, so our panning trip could produce some good results. Though I'm not a big fan of upper Lynx creek, the reason being that most of the bedrock is not user friendly, meaning its hard as steel and smooth as glass and only certain spots hold any good color.   The incentive is the amount of water in the last year, I'm hoping that there will be some new bedrock exposures. Even if the bedrock is not user friendly, fresh exposures can really hold some nice gold.

   So that's the plan, and I am looking forward to it, and even if we dont find anything it'll be nice gettin out on the creek. Hey if you see this post and show up your welcome to join us, but be there by 8AM, by 8:10 we'll be gone.

Good luck out there,
