Highway 38 east of San Bernardino, Ca.
Has anyone here ever prospected the creek that runs along hwy. 38 from Mentone out past Forest Falls? I did a job up the road from there a while back & have always wanted to try a pan or two since the San Bernardino mountains have been known for gold in the past. Also has anyone ever tried prospecting in Waterman canyon? the creek there is very small, usually not enough current to use a sluice but I drive up it a couple times a week & have been curious!Reply With Quote Yesterday 03:47 PM # ADSAds

Back in 96 my Cousin and I worked a creek like that on the 38 on the back side just below walker pass. It was so small I could straddle the creek.
We funneled all the water into my A52 and had to trench the creek bed down under the sluice about a foot deep and maybe 10' down stream to the get the flow fast enough. We did almost 30 buckets that weekend and found only 1 good picker, no flakes no flour, hardly any black sand. That was real weird. That hasn't ever happened before or since. I was told that creek was part of the South Fork Santa Anna river system. The picker was as big as a air rifle pellet. It showed up in the 2nd bucket. We assumed we would find more. Wrong.
In all the advancing we can do to improve this world, the sharing of knowledge and wisdom is the most important.Reply With Quote
