[QUOTE="Rivarat, post: 192925, member: 5745"] Friends were out digging for crystals the other day near Eldorado not in the creek but up in the hills when the were approached by 2 rangers. As I wasn't there I can only comment on what I've been told. The rangers didn't like were they were digging, and that they should be in the creek, even though they were in the permitted part of the park. They didn't like the size of their hole even though they started in a previous hole but was probably compounded the amount of other peoples holes left open. The Rangers said that fossicking in the park was really only to shovel depth and recommend that they refill their hole and be on their way. The Rangers took some photos and left. Thankfully they had their miners right, but not wanting any trouble they refilled their hole and packed up. Question is How big of a hole is too big?I know minimal impact and the PMAV code of conduct And where are these details published? especially for newbies as my friends are as it is easy to get and miners right and start digging a hole.
