[QUOTE="Twapster, post: 73058, member: 1582"] If there were several diggings one would think that gold was being found. However to leave the diggings means no more gold was being found at a rate sustainable to stay. So my answer to this question would be ....if the old timers moved on, and were digging big ass holes that would take me weeks to dig.....maybe they weren't finding anything for a long time before they gave up. A metal detector will certainly check up to a couple of feet more than they could....and the holy grail may only be 2 inches further! Its a tough decision. [/QUOTE]
