Hello!

I will be traveling on vacation to Tracy, CA between May 30 and June 10 , 2024, and just like 1840s I'm hungry for that GOOOLD. Open market to bet on things related to it!

Logistics:

  • Travel from NY to SFO on May 30, 2024 where I will be meeting a friend who lives in Tracy, CA.

  • I will be willing to drive a few hours to any location.

  • Since this is so close to Yosemite, I'll likely have to spend a day there. It looks pretty. (Open to suggestions).

  • And since this is close to SF, and Tracy, will likely spend a few days there!

Important market considerations:

  • I have yet to discover a location where I can legally use my 50' sluice box.

  • If I get disheartened I may explore other activities, such as just bumming around Yosemite or SF.

  • I have no idea what I am doing, but I looked at like, 5 tiktoks about sluice box usage like this guy.

Initial Questions will resolve true if:

  • If I, or a member of my gold hunting crew (if one is created), successfully recovers at least one spec of gold.

So far I have:

  • Bought a sluice box and panning set, and some waders. More info here.

  • Tested said sluice box in a small stream in NY. I learned:

    • I need to buy a big plastic bucket, a better shovel, and some plumber's gloves

    • I have no idea how to pan, I need to watch some youtube videos on how to actually do it
