2 ай бұрынAlways love checking out new spots on the Fraser River. This spot took some searching, but eventually found the hot spot, and had a great first day to the season gold panning along the Fraser river. Which included finding a literal pile of gold.

Sure you didn't find a lot of gold, and it wasn't the best day you have had on the river, but it was still a FINE day on the Fraser. Also, the biggest piece of gold around is you, Dan, and we thank you for inviting us along every week to watch you poke, prod, and dig for gold and precious stones.

@@G00G00L True, but to put it into perspective the sell value of what he found is about $50. Take into account the gas, travel time, and placer cost, and he's making less than $3/hr (of coarse this isn't including what he gets from KZfaq, selling rocks/other minerals, etc.). A person definitely needs to consider it an enjoyable hobby first and foremost at that rate, anything else is a bonus.

thanks for the great content Dan! 0.68g of gold is currently $47.32 usd. Gas for the truck calculated approx. $33.76 usd from peachland to lytton (assumption) highway driving a dodge ram at 13 L/100km, gas prices at $1.62/L cad. You’re making profit! yeeaaahhh! So thanks again for the content! I appreciate the passion, the knowledge, the craft, the skills, the dedication and the entertainment. include current monetization and this is a win win win.

"Its a numbers game" says Dan, and never a truer or more valuable life lesson has been spoken than that. EVERYTHING in life is a numbers game and learning where to focus your attention is the difference between success and wishful thinking. Of course that river's not a bad place to sit and just watch life go by anyway. 😂

Keep up the great job and providing knowledge for everyone else. Love your videos..

Ohhh Dan! Thank you for giving me my weekly dose o'gold! I wanted to be on here for the live but was driving. Gosh how I miss you and everyone! My schedule will be questionable for the next couple of months. 😭 Oh well, that's life unfortunately. I had a question about the last area that produced the most gold in your pan. Do you that it might be that the area is not as accessible, thereby it is not "worked" as often? Just a thought.... It was wonderful to see you so relaxed and enjoying the 'hunt.' Your smile said it all! I appreciate you and your family. I hope that everyone is doing well and hope to see them soon. In the meantime, I'll send you extra sunshine and blessings from Alabama ❤️
