[QUOTE="Tropixhunt, post: 678835, member: 25912"] RIP to your friend. I think I'm heading in the right direction. I'm going to do the Lake Morris walk tomorrow to try and get a feel for the area and find some more clues. The thing is there are literally hundreds of tributaries that feed into Freshwater creek. They never found a source for the gold up there. The best gold was apparently got in ancient creek-beds running alongside Freshwater Creek. And another creek that ran off it. And the rest of it was also alluvial gold out of the creek itself. I reckon there would not only be all sorts of good areas higher up Freshwater Creek, but also countless other feeder creeks, as well as other as-yet undiscovered ancient beds. Pity it's all National Park I guess. I wouldn't dare do anything like go fossicking up there... :) [/QUOTE]
