>>I really love this place, except for  the poison oak. In fact, I have 
already made plans to prospect for gold with two  different property owners in 
the near future... How cool is that?!  :)

I don't know what method you  will be using, but you can count on it not 
being dredging. Still illegal in  california for at least a couple or three 
more years. Panning is fun, but in  most spots where its fairly easy to 
dig...such as in gravel bars, it will most  likely be a waste of time...unless you 
are able to dig several feet below the  gravel to bedrock or clay. Then 
there's good potential. A dry washer might be  worthwhile if you dig in an area 
that is dry. I still got my dry wash, but its a  lot of hard work to use 
it. Not as fun as dredging.
