Our first outing of the year is just a week away! This is open to anyone and everyone who wants to show up, there is no cost and camping is plentiful! We will have all the AMRA staff there to teach new mining technique’s and to teach anyone how to prospect. Times are 10am to 4pm Saturday and 10am to 3 pm Sunday. Raffle to be held each day, Saturday at 3pm and Sunday at 2pm. Tons of prizes, fun and mining!
Here are directions to the claim:
From Coulterville, CA, take J132 through Greeley Hill to Greeley Hill Road. Turn right on Greeley Hill Road. Go straight to one-lane bridge. Turn right onto the dirt road marked Bull Creek Road or Road 20. Follow the road until you cross a small one-lane bridge. Turn left onto road 2S02. Drive about 1½ miles and the campground will be on the right. Turn right into the campground. This is Mountain Meadows 1 and Mountain Meadow 2. The markers are next to the stream in the middle of the claim. Babblin Brook’s marker is at the west end of the campground, just past the dirt mound. The USFS has a pit toilet in the campground.
Had a great time the drive from Portland Oregon was long but the friendliness and helpfulness from everyone made it worth the trip. Learn quite a bit on what I’m going to need to get the gold, Thank you AMRA
