Gold mining pics...

I keep forgetting to post these and Phred is gonna start nagging me soon! :p So without further delay, some pics from my hubby's work.

Picture of the minesite from "up the mountain". There are three camps in the exploration site, all about the same size as this one.

Sunset at about 2am, close as it gets to sunset in July anyway.

The whole area was part of a massive forest fire in 2004. Stuart helped fight this fire, although he had no idea he'd be working there again in a few years!

Another sunset pic.

I have some of Muskwa the camp dog too that will be going up in Dog General.

Wow, great pictures. It does look like it's out in the middle of nowhere.
Do they actually mine for Gold there? Do they find any? :)

W:eek::cool:W!

It's not an operating mine yet, still in the exploration stage. They are finding lots of gold. The plan is to be an operating mine in three years.
