Wow the way the ice builds on the side of your creek makes cool looking patterns. . Tuning in now brother. The algorithm is jacked u have so many videos I haven't seen. I'll have to catch up
Yeah we have the craziest ice formations here in New England! It’s like art and never ceases to amaze. Yeah the algo is whacked for sure! Thanks bro be well!
Yes it’s a great sign that there may be gold also present. Garnet sands, pyrite, serpentine, quartz, magnetite, hematite, all indicators to investigate.
That first piece was chuncky. I rarely find chuncky pieces mostly fine stuff. Vermont looks promising. Way to go on the speed panning. Smart way to do it. Save the cons from the pans and bring em home.
Tried Buffalo Brooke in VT. Got a couple flakes, but nothing like the quantity that you find. Maybe I need to move back to CA or AK. It was much easier there. Awesome video once again.
Hey! I don’t how to message you directly, but I’d like accompany you on/appreciate some tutoring on panning and prospecting for gold. I’ve been doing it for a few weeks, watched a bunch of video, yet, when I arrive to the locations, I seem to forget everything and grow overwhelmed looking for the right spots. I live in Burlington and have often take the drive down to Bridgewater, but only find tiny specs. I would like to find enough to make an engagement ring and a link for a few watches. But at this rate, I can’t keep making a combined 4 hour drives for three flakes. It’s amazing, fun, and a great time to alone, but I need help reaching the next step with this hobby! All the best and more:)
Hi Cody, it’s definitely more about the outdoor experience here in New England over the gold amount 🤠. Some people will find really good areas and that’s the reward. My best advice would be to stay the course and you will start seeing the river from the mind of prospecting. Also make sure to always think flood stage when you are viewing potential spots. It’s definitely a learning process that has to be sorted out through trial and error. When I think I’m on a good spot, its very often that it doesn’t produce. Like fishing, just keep moving spots!
@@northeastexpanse yes in the heart of it. I learned a lot living there. I hiked almost daily and would look for gold but never researched it. I was looking for floating gold! 🤣
Well gold will float if its small enough and there’s surface tension in the water 😉. I haven’t got over to pan in Bridgewater yet however I’ve been exploring a lot of areas in that general area.

Have 25 acres in northeast vt - was digging by hand, foundation, lots of fools gold, pyrite, but I read it is found with gold

Ayyy "ice N gold"
🤠

Definitely with the cons. Unless I’m running a sluice it takes away from time digging to pan out all the black sands, you know 😉.
Nice au indeed fam. Keep on having fun and living the dream. Gold Squad Out!!!
Thanks! Will do!
Great video Thanks for sharing 👍🏼 😀
Thanks for watching!

Thanks Michael! I’m definitely going to go through that area of Vermont at some point. Be well!

What does the Jet Dry do ?
Knocks down the surface tension of the water. Small gold will actually float if there is too much surface tension in the water.
Did you need a permit for VT? Nice winter gold 😃
Thanks Andrew! No permit needed. Was using hand pans only and on private land.
I cannot believe I lived in Chateauguay VT for years and I know where all the mines, crushing stations etc are but never panned for gold!! How dumb!!
Is that near Bridgewater?
@@northeastexpanse yes in the heart of it. I learned a lot living there. I hiked almost daily and would look for gold but never researched it. I was looking for floating gold! 🤣
@@northeastexpanse I was thinking after the big wash outs it would be a great idea.

Definitely a great idea! Lots of gravel has been washed in from the July and December floods. It’s tough going but fun!
