  • In my last adventure I spent two days searching a river for large gold deposits. By the end of day two I had very little to show for my efforts, late in the day my mate Ron showed up and on day three we set off down the river on our pack rafts testing for new deposits. The whole day was an incredible experience and not to long into our morning we strike gold a nice alluvial deposit with some chunkier pieces. With the trip a success it's a good reminder of the value of friendships and once again that immersion in nature that keeps a soul alive.

      Just come from Robs video also.
      Seems like Tassie doesn't want adventure tourism. That's OK. Think I might go to Thailand hire some motorbike & ride to Laos & Vietnam. Probably cheaper too. If not there NZ is only 3 hour flight.

      The WEF are behind all the nefarious plans to eradicate any outdoor activities in the future, everything you do... and don’t do, will be tied to your social credit score. Their proposal is to lock up massive tracts of land right across all 5 eyes countries. If you see the new proposals and fines for deviating from government guidelines in regards to native forests you’d be horrified. It’s sheer lunacy. The individuals behind these proposals are totally insane.

    You are a Spring Chicken young Levi...but I expect with the amount of hard work and physical effort you put in to these adventures, somedays you would not feel as such.
    All efforts appreciated...selfish me say's please never stop...but what the reality is do it while you can...and man you do it well 👍👍

    You are true ecologist and environmentalist because it seems that you work crevices but don’t break bedrock. We had a spot here in the Northern California Motherlode this summer that was just loaded with pickers. There was nothing on top of the bedrock. However, when we broke out the 4 pound sledge and started swinging. …. Pure magic 👍🇺🇸⚒️. Aloha

    Might have to think outside the box a bit. Culverts act as concentrators / sluice boxes. Detect old tailings. Do any of these rivers empty into the ocean? Would gold make it into the ocean in a large flood?

    Hey Levi, I have so much respect for what you do, and how much effort/ work you put into every video. I live vicariously through them 😂😊.
    Tassie is a beautiful place and I was there last week thanks to my son and his wife who treated me to a holiday. I only wish I had more time there. Hopefully I get to go back again soon.
    Thank you 🙏 and please be kind to yourself. Fkin bureaucrats that make these rules and regulations are a joke. We seem to be loosing the plot these days. I grew up camping on rivers, fishing and shooting, riding motorbikes and sitting by a fire 🔥. We were very lucky to have freedom. It’s soo unfortunate that we have limited access to the very thing that some of us need to be alive. I call the river my soul’s battery. It’s the bush and river that keeps me grounded and at peace no matter what the circumstances are in my life.
    Thank you 🙏
