Looking for a decent place near Las Vegas

Tamb

New member
I have been trying to find a decent place to nugget shoot near Las Vegas but the closest I could find was over 80 miles outside of town. Inside Vegas there are a lot of parks and the Parks and Recreation people don't seem to have any problems with metal detecting in most of them. But I'd like to get out of town and without a car I need to find something bike-able from the outskirts of town. Or at least bike-able from a bus or tourist point.

Jean NV and Goodsprings are both doable but I can't find any info about them on anything except load gold. No mention from either place one way or another about placer stuff. Oh granted with the mines so wide spread there are likely to be a lot of interesting things left behind but like most of us the color of Gold is always a part of the lure.

The 2 clubs I've found here in Vegas seem promising but they have most of their activities on the weekend and I'm not free weekends myself.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Goodsprings is about 20 odd iles south on I-15 to the right. There are a few people still there and a biker bar. There are a lot of open hole mine shafts so be carefull. it had some silver.
If you can, head up to Potosi. It was rich in Silver years ago + lots of mine rellics.
Good hunting in my backyard
