Big pumpkin dreamer,
curious to about how much that gold is worth in that pan?,,lol

I tried that when I was a kid when I lived in Colorado over 30 years ago in a river(which I cant remember the name of) near Grand Junction Colorado, I do remember it was a lot of fun and also remember finding gold, but it wasn't anything like the size of the gold of what your picture shows that you found, the gold I found was more of the really fine particle dust type gold.

I do remember it was still exciting to find once you would swish the bowl around to wash all the little rocks and black sand out to see the bright yellow gold.

Sure wish we had some rivers or creeks here in Ohio we could pan for gold cause that looks like a great hobby to get into.

If that is gold then big pumpkin dreamer is rich. Looks like honey bunches of oats to me.
