Wow, diamonds too 💎
Talk about hitting it lucky. It must be a really fun past-time, especially when you find a few. The secret I guess is knowing where to look.
I remember staying in California years ago and seeing guys going around on Quad bikes, wondering what they were up to. I'm guessing know in hindsight that they were prospecting for gold.
There's lots to do out there, hiking trails, trails for motorcycles and quads, but most good spots for gold you have to hike for the most part. There have been a couple times I found some right off a trailhead, but people work through those areas because they're easy. The best stuff is usually farther in. No diamonds for me so far though!
