One foot out the door
Hi all,
Hope you've had a successful weekend searching for whatever tickles your fancy, still to pan out a bucket of cons to see if my efforts were fruitful.
Here's the rub .....
Was stopped almost immediately by a local Parks Ranger asking if I had a miners right, no problem there.
Asked him about rule/access/potential restrictions and road conditions.
He was helpful in all regards his only proviso ...... FILL IN YOUR HOLES!!!!
I was testing a few sections of a stream and was sorry to see that in a kilometre or so on each side nothing but hole after hole after hole .......
Guess it's just a long winded way of saying we'll only have ourselves to blame when some areas start being declared off-limits due to inconsiderate fossickers, if they're mentioning it and it's so prevalent then ?????
Cheers Tom
