My Life in the Remote Bush as a Gold Prospector

- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- Swinging a metal detector to look for gold nuggets is a challenge. If going gold prospecting during the hot summer months it gets even harder and a trip to town to get supplies might be impossible for several weeks. Being prepared for those situations is key when heading into remote areas.
Metal detectors used in this video: Minelab GPX6000 and GPZ7000.

Really good Chrissy it’s great to see more behind the scenes, a lot of viewers would have no idea the amount of challenges and things your faced with out there you did a good job showing and explaining also shows just how remote and isolated, really enjoyed this 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks so much for the feedback, Levi! Living out here is not like a walk in the park but a very enjoyable lifestyle after all 😁
Ah, two of my favorite ppl to follow and watch. I spend a lot of time in the Canadian bush, so I can relate. It's the same but different.
My gold is wild foods and medicines. Stay safe ya,all
I love the extreme contrast between your environment Krissy and Levi’s. So different and yet both so beautiful! 😍
if failed snake detection..... snake guards.
And your camp looks so comfortable
Chrissy, leave the bonnet up all the time when the troopy is parked so the mice dont think they have a dark comfy spot to nest in!
AS LONG AS YOU ARE HAVING A GOOD TIME, GOOD LUCK AND KEEP SAFE..
Love getting a notification from my favourite German lady prospector I really enjoy watching you at work you sacrifice a lot of time and effort in finding Gold and also editing your adventures for us fans to enjoy so thank you Krissy you are simply a wonderful person with a big heart all the best from Glasgow Scotland 🏴 ❤❤❤
You really such a brave woman! I love your adventurous spirit and independence. Hats off to you, girl!!!
So much fun to watch this joyful person living a unique life.
Yes there is gold everywhere ❤️👍
Pretty amazing views from ridges and nobody for 100s km - well done and keep safe Kris ⛏️🌴
Well done Krissy.
Awesome editing skills and Drone skills.
Cheers Famo59
Thank you, Famo 👍🏻
I look forward to Saturdays with Krissy! Thank you for sharing your outdoor experiences. 💛
I love Chrissy she’s so brave , strong and full of positivity.
I’ve been watching her from the beginning, she’s just a really good person in the most trying of environments, I don’t think I’ve heard complain, when she split with …. Never a bad word, not once.
I’m a Committed FAN
Thanks for the video Krissy. Be super careful out there. Did a project years ago up that way and know its really tough country.
With all that water you should be taking advantage and do some panning, find the washout bends , pick up on some fine flower gold . Show us them skills👍👍🍻😘
Thanks. Keep swinging. Best of luck. ✌🏻👊
Looks like you're also starting to do a little homesteading along with prospecting. Very cool, I've been homesteading off grid for 15 years here in the USA
Nice drone shots! Love the composition. The gold is nice too.
Krissy it's good to see gold again. Please be careful of snakes and creepy crawlies. The flash floods can be dangerous so listen the forecast. I assume you have an emergency radio and plan. Your trip to town will be sweet with some gold. I guess that I worry too much about you. Good luck and good hunting. 👍♥️♥️♥️
Best video yet. Really shows what it takes to be successful. Good job Kissy, awesome gold. And thanks for taking us with you and showing the behind the scene everyday stuff like turning around at the swap hole and going without bread. That sneaky snake comes back, you be sure to pop him with a stick, give him what for. Tell it to go catch a mouse somewhere else...🤠
Great video Krissy. Great story, beautiful scenery. Was sad when it ended. 👍😊
Crissy, I wish to share something with you that is going to seem really far out.
I was asked to find where a sewer line was either plugged or damaged. I instructed the owner to water the distance between the house and the street. The next day I came back with some experimental equipment.
I had fashioned a fish finder ( humming bird 400) puck to the lower end of a 4 legged walking cane and used a small 12 volt battery to power the display.
Moving it around between the house and the street I was able to locate the soil pipe and by watching the display was able to track and find the crushed pipe causing a pinpoint dig area.
I have often wondered if using one similar but a bit more advanced on the display to find underground rocks and even possables gold that may have worked it's way into deeper pockets that a detector may not be able to see. As long as the ground is wet the transducer should work giving a fairly good representation of the alluvial bottom and the top of the bedrock . Could give you an insight on those raining days. I have enjoyed your presentations and wish you the best of fortune.
Krissy, you are such a joy to watch. I thank you so much for your quality content.
Living the dream!!! If my back wasn't so bad I'd be somewhere down under doing the same thing... good on you and I'm still waiting for the find of a lifetime, you deserve it!!!
You go girl , good luck ❤️👍
You really are a lesson to everyone to ensure you're prepared for the bush and not to take unecessary risks when you are alone. It's very impressive the respect you have for your surroundings. Thanks for sharing, Krissy.
you are living the dream no neighbors swinging a minelab and figuring problems as they arise, i have german in my background love my minelabs but live in the west where all the californians have landed on us, we germans are smart and tough we will figure it out
A power winch with a decent length of cable would be a wise addition to the vehicle. Then I would research how to use it if there are no obvious places to anchor the other end. (Strong tree). Then again I would have turned back as you did, no point in inviting trouble when patience is the wise move. I punctured my petrol tank on a similar road to Exmouth (Pilbara), and it is zero fun being stuck on an empty road 40 km from safety. That said it is an adventure, you are young and the experiences you are now having will serve you well when your too old (like me) for such adventures. You make very watchable videos, thank you.
Hi Krissy - you do such a great job in letting us know what it is like. Really great to see you get some pieces 👏👏
Hi Krissy..
My best trick is leave your truck bonnet open at night mate..
Mice and rats dont like star's!
I'm on 300 acres of bush and it definitely works, ive had them munch my wires before .
Love the videos 👌
Good Job 👍. Can't wait to see the next Video
Hi Chrissy , Living vicariously through you ....Thank you ....Sending nothing but positive energy your way .....cheers
Hi from Adelaide again, Thanks so so much for sharing your experience. You know I'm a huge fan.
So proud of you Krissy! Thank you for sharing and continue to keep finding those nuggets 💥💪🤠
Bravo! An excellent video. So entertaining with a touch of suspense. I enjoy the drone shot that shows the vastness of Western Australia. And your very honest and personal dialogue set the tone for a day in the life .....Hope you made it safely into town and maybe got yourself an ice cream....you deserve it!!!
Hi Chrissy. Love your channel. Just wanted to let you know that the flying termites are edible and very delicious. You can either dry fry them or with a bit of butter. They are also edible uncooked but alive. When the rains start for us they come out like crazy to mate and then there are those that die. Please try it. A very high source of protein. Just my two cents😊Keep doing what you are doing. We love it. Much love from Kenya 🇰🇪
What a formidable piece of ground.
Beautiful in its own way.
Good job Krissy, Thank You. Please take Care and be safe out in the wilds. Cheers.
Nice to see you again!
The key to living out there is making good choices and your doing great with those Krissy and learning to be Jack Jack of all trades .
Thank you for sharing with us. It looks like hard work. Happy for your finds.
I watch your videos every day. Best wishes for you from Vietnam!
Thunderstorms, flooding, death adders and plagues of flies - and you don't have bread or coffee?!
My goodness you earned that gold!
Thats great Chrissy i cant wait till i get back into prospecting again....love you work
Really enjoyed this vlog Krissy. The country is very interesting. I'm sure you worry about flash floods and have a plan for such an event right? Thanks for taking us along and sharing. Safe exploring, Deb
Flash floods are very likely to occur with big rain but not a worry when camping up high like out here. Rivers might not drop for a few weeks which is why there are plenty of supplies here to survive longer periods of isolation.
Great to add you doing what you love Krissy! You are one of the most resilient courageous women on You Tube. When you get to town raise a cold one!!😊☮️✌🏼
Really great video Krissy. You do it so well. Try a plastic bag around your pinpointer in the water if you have vibration option. Thanks so much for your efforts.
Great video Krissy... you are a master of video production. Great to see a couple of nice nuggets there today.. you deserve them... that's a tough environment out there.. Fingers and toes crossed for many more nuggets from that system.
thank you for sharing the adventure and information.
You should take some of the quatz from that vein and bring it back to camp, and do sampling when it rains or days you cannot go into the fields to prospect.
Krissy and the killer guard chickens...love the content and your independence.
This lifestyle is so intriguing to me... love the content mate, look forward to more
Keep safe my friend..
Thank you for your great video, I really like it, much love from the Netherlands ❤
Hi Krissy. Outback challenges can change your life. Nice nuggets. Great vid.
That drill sample is from big big companies who are checking to see if the area is worth mining. You should find a fair bit of gold from that area.
You certainly do it tough my girl, I do this every year yes it hot and the rubbish we dig is incredible. You show it how it really is not every hole is gold. I’m loving your work.
Some good gold Krissy. As far as a water proof pin pointer I use a Garrett pro pointer. I hope that creek has a lot more gold in it for you. Looks like you need to get supplies air dropped in.
Krissy! You're smiling a lot more! 👍
That mouse ... I don't like killing things, but where you are it could leave you stranded chewing through wires ... So, it's you or the mouse, right?
Your living allot of old men's childhood dreams. Thank You for taking me along.
I LOVE watching your videos! Such a bold and independent woman doing what you enjoy!!! I saw you struggling to find a target and needing a waterproof pin pointer, and wondered why you didnt just put it in a zip baggie when you need it waterproofed.
No expense if you save one from your groceries. Tortillas usually come in one, so it wont even cost you a Penny! My favorite kind of fix. 🤣🤣🤣
Love your stuff...very entertaining and informative 👍 👏. Love watching that gold appear .
Thank you 😊 💓.
Awesome!
The backwoods of Australia look like another planet, so beautiful.
Sounds like you have a valve-stem leak? Spray some soapy water on it, if it bubbles you can tighten or replace it.
That creek is perfect, especially where the rocks act as Sluice.
Thanks for sharing!
Congrats on the two pieces of GOLD you work hard for them 🇦🇺🫶🏻🇺🇸
So cool to watch you I really enjoy this. I would like to hear more about the snake danger and how you are cautious with that.
Wow... what a half hour experience for the uneducated, and a reminder for those with memories... i would guess it one of your best, real life experiences so far... from the weather, the vermin, the scenery, the harshness, determination and rewards, its all there in your real lifes experiences. Well done, and thank you. I read all the comments, its amazing how we can all easily work out how to put a pinpointer in a plastic bag, in after thought👍☺. Hang in there mate, the weather will change eventually, all you have to do is... outlast it
yeah this is great information on living in the outback. i don't understand how you have so many termites and i don't see much wood around for them to feed on but you sure could use a few more chickens to clean up the problem.
Good luck Krissy!! JJ
Is it the valve? Put it back in the water and increase the pressure. You have some soap? Take the wheel off at the water. You have tube in the tire? You have a patient that is complaining of losing air.
Love the video as usual Chrissy. Always an adventure.. The excitement for seeing you find the gold 🥇 is gratifying.
Was nice to see Levi of Tassie boys to drop a comment.. united prospectors 🙏👍
First time watching here in Texas. Love your spirit and attitude. I subscribed. Can’t wait for more. Please stay safe out there!
Thanks and welcome 🤗
Thanks and welcome 🤗
Christy, two things, please get yourself a wear of work gloves to help save your hands (tops and bottoms) from the sun, and a small sledgehammer and a star drill for rock. Also, get a small pry bar. Good luck.
A beautiful hard working lady; in a beautiful hard country. Blessings
Mackerel and baked beans my fave remote prospecting lunch. Combined with all that exercise, you will enjoy many more happy and productive decades in the great outback.
Krissy, you can temporarily make the pin pointer waterproof if you have some thick plastic bag and duck tape, if you have any available. If not, some way to bind the bag so it is sealed, or above the water line.
Hey there's ants They carried my cooler away with beer I found my cooler later and all the ants drunk😂😅😆😁😍😂😜😛
No luxury items, damn, no chocolate, wine and seafood. Another great video Chrissy!
Bloody fantastic show really enjoying your life in the bush, all the best. New Zealand 🇳🇿
Thank you so much for the look behind the scenes and the continued awesome content. I dream of reaching that land one day but for now Arizona is my mini version, without half the bugs. 😂 I spent the last winter, summer and now this winter off grid in my motorhome with no ac. I had the option but as you said, it was no fun enjoying it for a bit just to have to acclimate to the outside temps again. I kept it only for the worst of days. I chased the gold every night during the summer to avoid the temps best I could, winter isn’t bad. While I found some amazing gold and truly lived a bucket list section in my life, my soul still itches to see that beautiful land you wander. Thanks so much for a genuine look into a gold prospectors life over that way. Nice job searching out that shiny yellerrrr!
Great drone shots! The outback is SO vast! And ALONE is very real! Amazing adventure you are living and sharing! Stay safe and keep swinging!
Nice to see you have a drone to survey your area.
I'm just looking forward to the day that you find a reef and they write legends about it .thank you for taking us along on your adventure looking forward to the next one
Great work Krissy, a couple of nice nuggets! I hope the weather settles down so you can get stuck into the detecting, good luck!
Everyday I check to see if a new video is posted, love the new mellow background tunes, pleasant and appropriate for the scenery and activity not so hard on the ears. Appreciate the effort you put in to produce your videos. Greetings from the California Motherlode region.
Hope you find lots soon Krissy!👍🏼🙏🇨🇦😊
Thank You Krissy .So much fun Watching your Adventures .
Krissy i admire you so much, so many challenges but you never get down.❤
Just wanted to say I think you're amazing! Iv been alittle scared to step out into nature after some health issues, but seeing you do this on your own has inspired me to get out there.
Amazing ❤
The Deus Mi-6 pinpointer is the best. Garrett carrett for back up. Sometimes hike to the top, just for the view. Love your editing. Best gold prospecting channel.
Great Krissy too see your still up for more adventure in the Pilbra and having found 2.86 gm's of gold in between the rain
and heat. And you made the right call on turning back to camp as your on your own. if you had got bogged trying to get thru
not worth it. Standing on the ridge overlooking landscape brilliant view enjoy it while you can every bit of gold is Awesome.
You are one tough lady, I absolutely enjoy all your videos! I hope you find the mother load, you certainly work very hard for it. Stay safe out there!
Happy Sunday Chrissy I know how hard it is in Summer to stay positive and enthusiastic. You do a great job.
You are one smart individual when it comes to covering your various needs. I won't lecture you on the need for water but when you shared your vehicle prep and water routine it somehow made me think of the phenomenal Robyn Davidson and her almost 1700km across the outback from Alice Springs to the Atlantic on foot and camel. You seem to have a similar "can do" spirit that is impossible to ignore.
_Kia kaha, kia noho haumaru_ Stay strong and safe.
Two nice chunks Krissy well done ...hope u get to town soon. ✌🏻🇬🇧
gold or no gold thank you for sharing the adventure and information 😀 its great to see places that i probably will never get to see in person.
The weather is man made they have been playing with the weather since nineteen seventysix that's no joke
Chrissie so glad that you reconsidered going shopping!! How awful would it have been if you couldn't get back to tend to the property and chooks!!! Keep safe from those snakes! Hope you have access to a satellite phone!
So much respect for you and what your doing. I know how difficult it can be finding gold with detectors, especially by yourself in such an environment.
Kudo's and keep the vids coming
The Garrett carrot pinpointer is waterproof to 10 feet. It is known as the carrot because it is the orange one.
So glad you turned around!! Try soapy water on the tire to find the leak
Krissy you are one brave woman, hat down to you and your hard work!
