Glaza’s Trails

Glaza has some of the coolest walking trails around camp. She works very hard at keeping them in nice shape and drags me into it now and then to help her on a project she has on the go ! If I want to eat supper well I better help her, she is the boss  ! 

Sluice Days

Get everything running, a warm up ! Coffee and snacks with Miss Busy, I then put every thing on line and go to work washing the trucked in ore. Sluice days are flat out days for me ! Feeding the Wizard and keeping an eye on it all, I get out and do a rounder, head box, top end, bottom end, sluice box, I work quickly, when you have motors running you have to be sluicing !  The day is a long one and you’re not complete until the gold plant is ready to go for it’s next gold  run, all the tailing rock is moved, and the truck ramp is cleaned up for the ore haul to the ore pad. I am always doing service or repairs as I move through the day ! Wow, and I still find time to party with Miss Busy as we move through our day together.  The Gold Miners Life

Digging Deep

I was out looking for a few of the things I can see I’m going to need as I get going. Spring is flashes of things to be gathering, get them into the mine load ! Always a can of tar for the roof ! I do not like to be leaked on in bed ! just about the time summer comes to my little Watson Lake Town I move up into the mountains. Back into the snow and catch another spring the mountains.

2007 Holloway Bar Gold Mining Adventure

Mr. Al has got this McDame Creek Gold Rush Special, 2007 Holloway Bar Gold Mining Adventure is a video all ready to go in the morning.  We all shot it for fun ! A good friend Trevor was up helping out and we were thinking let’s make the first gold mining video and have some fun with it !  Well, did we have a good time watching it and so did a lot of others ! ! !

It’s been very cool to see the old videos redone and look good. At the time over 10 years ago well you know, wow it’s just great to see them at their best ! Thanks Mr. Al for this and the help on getting and teaching Miner Man how to run the website, still a work in progress. Big thank you to Glaza for being so patient with me, and doing my spell check. Hope you all enjoy this old blast from the past  !
