The first is Boomer Bar and the local launch point for most dredges. Maybe 20 camps here

Combat Dredging at it's best and Myrtle and creek has a new prospecting store so parts and supplies are only a few miles away. Make sure you stop into the Rockin Ore House when you are there

Made it down last week and above pictures tell all...lots of dredges as Bonaro said.

Delivered a brand new custome Keene Ultra-4 with a 263 compressor.

Noticed one dredge down near Poverty Flats, think it was a five incher, that was largely made of wood. Chris Craft would be proud. Also went down to the Illinois River to see some friends and found even more dredgers and high-banking operations. Hope all found gold. Cheers.
