Book Description
This is the most comprehensive guide to the Alaskan goldfields in print. Now there’s no need to worry if you’re trespassing or not on someone else mining claims. This book has got everything from maps, locations, historical mining past, state & federal regulations and information. This lets the prospector know if any gold has been previously mined from a particular area. There are over 150 sites identified in this unique book. This book is in its fifth printing since 1996. Each location is rated according to potential. Areas covered include; Fairbanks, Kenai Peninsula, Brooks Range, Yukon River, Fortymile, Circle, and Nome. Information on each site also tells what kind of equipment is allowed (gold panning, dredging, metal detecting, sluicing etc).
