I would like to try some gold panning in WA state. Any one know a good area to try. I'm looking for specific places such as The blank and blank river.\n\n Thanks for your help.

Washington placer gold can be found in Asotin County in the sand and gravel bars along the Snake River, along the Columbia river in Benton county. In Pacific county there's beach placers near the mouth of the Columbia. There's lots more and not enough room to list all. I have listings for 24 counties. If you have a particular county in mind contact me on my 360 page and I'll give you what I have. Would suggest contacting the GPAA and joining, they have lots of claims in Washington where you can camp and pan.

Grand Haven State Park is nice.  Or if you want a little more rustic, come to the UP.  Many nice campgrounds across the UP and we can always use the money.......

I saw on the travel channel that Georgia was an even bigger deposit than California, but California got all the press.Why not  do some geological research and find out Ohio's gold percentage?Then I'd say invest in a metal detector.peace!\n\nVin

Sir or madam, I can do this kind of search, but oddly, every search came to a dead end. I am curious about this.  I will attempt to ask someone else who is better at searching than I am and return if fruitful.  Later . . .maybe Yellowstone,  Bev Pierson?

I'd love to come to Oz. I think it's a bit exy for the tickets though. All the Aussies I've known have been good cobbers (and good fun)!! I've used "No worries" for years here in California. What a great phrase!!\n\nI'd check out the vejjo food joints. My husband would probably surf and dodge sharks. Luckily he's not a shark bisquit.\n\nThanks for the invite!!

When my famiy relocated several states away from our home in Washington, we used www.rent.com.  They list the rent ranges right on the website and they even give a $100 check when you sign a lease with one of the properties on their site and they confirm it with the property manager.  \n\nI'd use that site again in a heart beat.  It worked really well for our family.

I love the clear water spring-fed Ichetucknee River near where I grew up in Fla. I'd like to scuba and swim in the Great Barrier Reef off Austrailia, though. That would be awesome.

Can't help you with the license side of it but can tell you from a business perspective now is the time to make it happen. Land is remarkable cheap to include key areas such as Biloxi and Ocean Springs. Your major hurdle will be getting materials to job sites...it's my understanding I-10 and State 90 are both still closed or at limited capacity making it hard to get lumber, etc down there.

If you can get a boat out from Brora,Golspie or Helmsdale area you can get some cracking sport.I fished that area last year and we filled 10 boxes with cod and ling between 7 rods and I think only 1 trace got lost and that was due to fisherman error.\nThe boat we used was called Bonny Lass and the skipper was called Tom Macrae (sorry dont have his number but I am sure its in the phone book)

Wow, right close to home.  I'm in Albemarle and I go to the Uwharries a lot.  I do a lot of wilderness camping so a lot of the times I'm off the trails.  I know they have one campground called Yates Place Campground and it's a pretty good spot.  Most of the time you can walk along the Uwharrie trail and there'll be spots along the trail that others have camped at.  There you can find flat ground, usually cleaned up from debris, as well as fire rings already made.  That tends to work out well too.  If you have anymore questions, just shoot me an email!

You are in a very good part of the country for prospecting. There are many known gold-bearing areas in the region. Visit www.goldprospectors.org. They will have all the info you need. The GPAA is the nation's largest prospecting organization. Membership is very reasonable and will give you free access to claims from coast to coast and the members are more than willing to help out the "newbies".

yea! i love doing this. and....i used to live in midwest city. i bet if you go to any little old farm town and the old outskirts of those towns where there are old abandoned buildings, you can find where the people used to dump the stuff that they couldn't incinerate. (often on the side of hills) i wish i were there to go hunting for stuff with you! have fun! p.s. if you are anywhere near okemah- that would be a great place to start out.

A shame you can't leave your state! I'm thinking you guys would probably like "indoor water-parks"? Is there an amusement park nearby? Perhaps, renting a cabin on a lake? Do you guys like to hike? Or camp?.....Sorry I'm not familiar with Ohio, or I would give you some destinations. Try looking up your states WEBSITE, they may have some cool stuff you don't know about....good luck!

I've lived in both places and recommend Wa. it's such a diverse and friendly city and Chicago is neither. Seattle has a marine climate and rarely gets down to freezing. Want snow -ski slopes are 35 miles away--swim, dig clams, parasail 60 miles. Mountain climb, pan for gold, hike, camp 60 miles. Shopping restaurants and seattle center. Winter months has a mist of rain most days--no one pays any attention-not enough to get really wet.Only about 4 months of sunshine. I love Pudget sound and deep sea fishing. The shops and clubs are great on the wharf. Many concerts and the hill is very trendy and appeals to college students.

West Texas A&M in Canyon (near Amarillo) offers the Equine Industry Program.  The Panhandle is a great place to be if you're interested in horses!  Check the link for more info.  :)
