    Wow, nice nugget!!! That’s the biggest one I’ve seen from the Wild AM. When did you did it up? I hope I can get some thisweekend.

      Dug it up a couple weeks ago…just a few inches from the surface. Yea, I am still in shock! Good luck this weekend.

      Thanks. I was surprised to see it of course. It has a bit of red coloring on one side…rust maybe?

    Great posts Jim. I am ready for spring, and to start panning again. Can you re post this picture, or let me see the size of this nugget? The picture no longer shows up. Here is how much gold I have found from the Wild Ammon so far.
