Now we live on the South Island, I thought it is a good idea to start with gold panning. I ordered a beginners kit last week and today it was the first day to do some practise.
The next time I go alone because my daughter is not patient enough. We found no nuggets today but we saw some awesome places and had a lot of fun.
At least we made some golden memories for the soul.
I'm curious ... have you ever met anyone who's found gold by panning? For some reason, I was thinking that panning hasn't worked much since the 1800s. But I want to be wrong about this ... it would be a great excuse to hang out in a stream.
There are still guys making money with goldpanning. For the good spots (New Zealand) you must have a (expensive) license. Mining for cryptocurrency is more populair these days.

used to enjoy doing it as a kid, didn't find much though lol
I definitely go back with the kids, it is a nice activity (also without nuggets lol).
