Spent a week up at Dell's Hole over the Easter break, it was a great experience overall and learnt a lot for future trips from everything to camp setup to reading different ground and some different detecting styles and settings.
There's a lot of interesting ground up there but you need to know how to read it and spend a good amount of time with the coil on the ground (and climb many hills). As such you'd be crazy not to do a day with Steve from Savannah Gold as he does the tours up that way and gives you all the tools and local knowledge you need to piece it all together yourself and find some gold.
Just about everyone finds gold a few days after a session with Steve and true to form on the 3rd day (and about 15 minutes after a phone call to Steve at the top of a hill) I picked up my first. A few more pieces came after that along with some other interruptions (resupplying at Georgetown and some rainy days) so only 3 pieces total for the trip but happy nonetheless.
Your bull bar isn't going to help with the giant cattle...
4wd mandatory...
Poking around some old diggings...
Be prepared for many hills...
Sometimes they'll reward you though...
