Bear Creek Bill Hope Alaska

["Bear Creek Bill"]

I been mining on Bear Creek in Hope, Alaska for many years. Well this year will be my first time using a 4inch dredge I bought at AMD. I,m waiting for my dry suit to come in I also purchased atAMD.I will be mining right above Charlie Toms old claim where he found a 36oz nugget. I want you all to wish me luck,i'll be 71yrs old this year and I hope I don't drown...lol..Best of luck to all you miners this season, may all your pans be full of GOLD!..

Good on you Bill - I hope I have the gumption to still be dredging when I am 71! Hope you find a nugget bigger than Charlie's.
