Here you will find a story of a family of five people who are mining for Gold on Quartz creek in Alaska. We work hard, we play hard and these are our tales. Follow along, comment if you like. Ask questions, I am here to provide the reader with information about our. This is not the same Quartz Creek that they have on the Gold Rush Alaska show and I am in no way associated with them, other than I mine for gold.
This is a sneak peak at our new, improved and bigger wash plant. The sun is out the snow is melting and soon you will be able to see some photos of this beast in action. As you have seen, if you have been following the blog, we have been up to the mine this winter. We have done some snow clearing to hurry along spring melt so we can set up our new equipment. Stay tuned for 2013 mining season news and photos, ITS ALMOST HERE!!!
Every winter the snow brings lots of trees down in the trail and every spring we have to get out the chain saw and start clearing the way so we can make it down our trail. Here is a picture from thanksgiving to show that the mess has already begun. You would think that we would get at least one spring that would be free of fallen trees on the trail, but that is so not the case. Mother Nature loves to keep us busy.
