[QUOTE="blennus, post: 249766, member: 6956"] Ah ok, thanks for that bit of "recent" history regarding the tunnel. I even said to myself as I was doing that walk "even if I don't find any gold, I've had this great walk out of it." Just as well given my lack of showing in the pan. I actually took my detector (it's just a cheap Kogan one) to do some detecting but had read that either detecting is not permitted... or if it is, it's only along the creek bed... do you know anything about that? I'm not in a huge hurry to arrange to go back (it's about an extra half hour there and same back for a total of about 2 hours either way)... but if I'm allowed to detect along the walking paths etc I could be interested. With my detector I wouldn't be expecting to find gold but would be keen to see if I might uncover an old coin or something. It's a lovely area and a number of years ago when I first panned there I actually managed a decent little picker... it remains my biggest piece (which is why I wanted to go back). I believe there are two other creeks nearby that could be worth having a pan in also? I used to live around Watsonia, then Hoppers Crossing and we now live up next to Ballarat so I'm not starved for choices of where to go... just when I can go and money to get the car there ;) [/QUOTE]
