[QUOTE="Banjo68, post: 608243, member: 17170"] Hey mate. Just had a look at some maps of the area to refresh some places I have been As you are staying in Talbingo. Your best bet woul be to look around the Bago state forest or Maragle state forest. There has been gold found in these areas From what I found researching and getting out there and looking for myself is it is pretty tough country. Not somewhere you want to be without a backup vehicle and a GPS if you want to get into some of the massive gullies that probably have potential. The tracks are 4x4only and you might get in but probably won't get out if the weather turns for the worst,as it can up there in a heartbeat. It is some of the most beautiful part of the country,but some of the most unforgiving I have ever seen. Especially in winter. If you go to the shop at Talbingo and talk to the people there and get some forestry maps they might have some local knowledge for you. If I were you I would put it off until the summer months and go somewhere a bit more accessible with known gold and have fun finding a bit of gold in ya pans. Especially for the kids. Good luck mate Cheers Bango [/QUOTE]
