oldies1955 Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 Hey all: Welp, got up to Lynx lake area on Fri morning, set up camp, did some detecting, found some old bullets/miners stuff and just basically junk. Its a hard area. There is gold in there, but your gonna work for it! Did a little crevising and found a few flakes. Cleaned up the camp site, sat down for a few cold ones with Arctic Dave and proceeded to relax. Well..........Then the gang bangers moved in and decided that everyone likes their kind of music.....after about a half hour of that crap I had a "short" talk with them asking them to turn it off with them telling me there are no rules up here... and realized I left my BAR and 50 cal. at home so we just decided to move out. Went back up to the top and found #1 campspot was open. Its the cats meow! Nice and quite. Couple of cars from walker road, but not crowded and peaceful. That was the ugly. Now for the good Hit some spots on the west side of walker road. Found some really nice trash Really old bullets, all white with corrosion. A live 22 that's been in the ground so long it was corroded through the casing, and some kind of red rock with carving on it. Looks like a piece of steak! Don't taste good though. At least I got into some washes that have not been hit in a long time. Did a lot of relaxing this weekend. We don't expect much out of this area...just a place to go and cool off and relax. Cool looking split pine trees all around. Met up with Artic Dave, Luke/Mike/Adam (Ahorton) and a guy from Paulden that showed us some really nice gold hes found this year After a feast of Pork bulgogi, Kimchee, and bean sprouts we lit the fire and enjoyed the night. My hunting partner AKA Dad...was kind of stuck in his lounger The elevation change does have a effect on you...little harder to hunt up there Did some exploring on Sun, looked at Smelter hill and went up around potato patch then headed back home. It was a great time out in the cool weather. Bout 85 for a high up there and 105 down in the valley EWWWW Tom H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newriverblake Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 Sounds like you guys had a great time minus them flat hat wearing gang bangers, what's up with that flat brim on there hats anyway, I guess that's what happens with multiple baby momma's and no father figure I guess. I saw you on Lynx lake rd and wanted to say hi but I was rolling in the wife's mini van and wasn't sure I could make it to your camp site and was kinda to embarrass to stop by in the family truckster anyway to hang out.
