We headed back out to the creek yesterday for some more dredging and shiny-hunting.

Sure, it was just a little chilly in the water, but wetsuits made it totally tolerable. :D
David dredged, as you can see from this short video clip:
I placed my bucket and sifted through the heap of stuff coming off the back of the dredge to retrieve garnets:
DO NOT BE TOUCHIN MAH BUKKIT

Mike cleaning out the dredge:
And here's the gold!
up-close:

There are garnets that came up from the bottom of the creek as well that I will be tumbling.
Also I'm going to practice to improve panning technique with the leftover concentrate material from the dredging.
