New Gold Prospecting Information!  
Posted on Wednesday, May 16

If you've been considering attending this weekend's campout, or just coming up Saturday for the day, please consider these numbers:

1540: the current value in dollars for one ounce of gold.  Fred said they he has been finding a considerable amount of gold over the past few months.

90:  this is the anticipated high temperature for Saturday in Wickenburg, that means the morning and most of the day will be considerably cooler than 90, it'll be in the 60s in the morning, we'll be at 2800 foot elevation, perfect weather.

45:  the amount of time in minutes it will take you to drive to the campsite from I-17 and Carefree Highway

7: the time we'll start our prospecting, but you can come later

1: the number of prospectors each camper will have assigned as their personal prospecting trainer and metal detecting teacher

10: the cost in dollars to come out and share burgers, brats, margaritas and sangria for dinner after we celebrate our new riches

We will have three Desert Adventures signs and red ribbons clearly marking the drive to the campsite, there is also cell phone reception, so call if you need assistance.  We'll have plenty of wood, but if you'd like to come up for the day, bring a side if you wish. It would also be advisable to wear long pants, good shoes, and maybe a bucket, a small shovel, some water, and a chair for hanging out around the fire.  We'll also have a basic toilet availble for those who may have been concerned about this aspect of the event.

Any questions, give us a call--this event is going to be a winner!
