[QUOTE="The Green Wanderer, post: 355221, member: 784"] Which bank were you on Goldfreak? I know the spot in question well and yes it has been prospected many times by many people over many many years. By the bridge is a popular swimming hole so if you were more than 40m away from it and on the farm side of the river (not the national park side) then you should have been fine... That said the river itself is not exempt and the boundary for the park is the far side of the river tecnically the high water mark but thats a grey area so Id call it the far waters edge and leave it there. However if you were in all those nice basalt outcrops around the swimming hole then I could understand the rangers concern. Dont worry Goldfreak, plenty more river downstream of there to work. TGW.
