Rogue River Gold

Have you been watching the Gold Markets lately? With prices floating between $900-$1,000 an ounce it is tempting for every one to grab a shovel and a pan and head for the river!

Well, there is plenty of gold on the Rogue River. In fact, some experts claim there is a million dollars a mile in gold, but it is in fine flakes and hard to extract. With the price of gold these days there may just be 2 million dollars per mile in gold!

The kids that come to our Teen Raft Camp take a turn at finding gold the old fashioned way. They become immediate experts and have a ball doing it. Yes, any gold they find is theirs to keep! Gold Panning is a popular past time for the teens. We take them to some of our "No Fail" sites where everyone finds a little gold!

Be warned though, once there is "color" in the bottom of the pan, you could be hooked for life!
