Gold Prospectors of Colorado Lets Go Gold Panning Days 1999

This was the debut of the "dredgemobile". I assembled this anticipating a move-in on my California trip. The claim has a long footbridge over the river that makes a long carry in. With this setup, I can roll everything in in one trip. Here I used the wheels and a rope and I was able to roll it down the bank into the river by myself. Actually I wouldn't have needed the rope but then it would have ended up in the middle of the river without me. With the rope the decent was a little bit more controlled. It didn't come up the hill quite as easily as it went down though.
