Quite a few people pan in the North Saskatchewan.


I THINK you can pan down there but soon as you bring a certain amount of equipment you have to have license ect... Would be fun to even just watch. Bet it can be pretty territorial if you just walk up to a guy and say hey I want to pan for some of your gold.

From BC. As stated above most rivers in BC and Alberta have trace/flour gold.

Lots of gold claims already staked on many waterways as well. Claim jumping is a hangable offense :)

Beach Corner-Just follow the tracks from the liquo
I see people looking for it quite a bit on the N.Sask R. One guy i asked who was running his operation with a gas powered motor said he'd probably get in trouble with the gas unit. Most have electric or old school pans. My old retired neighbour has a cool electric unit with a swirl chamber. Because I ride the river quite often he told me what to look for. He said he's found quite a bit over the decades.

Was Jack there yammering on about glory holes?

The only reason I watch that show is to see big dumb Todd fail. This season in Oregon just proves how dumb he really is. Don't do any sampling and just take the claim owner's word that the dredges didn't get to bedrock...
