Fern, my white Boxer dog, is an accredited service dog under the 1992 DD act. She holds special access rights to be allowed to enter places most dogs cannot. This includes National Parks such as Chiltern Mt Piolet NP where Reedy Creek is located. Unless your dog is an accredited service animal they are not allowed to enter NP.
Check your local regulations, as each state and territory is different, before you travel into or though NP with your dog. Here is the Parks Victoria website for those of you wishing to read up on Victoria's laws 👉 www.parks.vic.gov.au/things-t...

😅 bit annoying too sometimes but hey we are all different
You're having a blast brother. Go back and find the shiney. Even small scale it would give you an idea on logistics for future projects.
It looks like you’re enjoying yourself and that’s all that matters. It was fun for me!😊
Hi Chris I've posted you a little present in appreciation of the paydirt sample I won in your Patreon giveaway. I've recovered 1.15g of mostly very fine gold so far and there's a little more to recover yet. I'd noticed your "stampy" could do with an upgrade so I've made another one for you. Thanks for all your videos.

Aww congratulations on winning ❤
Gratz on coming out and good luck with your transition to hard rock
Awesome gold and awesome discovery.. Hell yeah I can't wait for the next one.
Your channel has grown tremendously over the last couple years, and you definitely earned it. I'm looking forward to the new direction it's going. Dad's reef were always my favorite.

more hard rock possibilities there , there wasnt much scope for panning lol
Hands down the greatest gold related channel on KZread. You gotta throw Chris a buck! This man busts his ass! 😉
Hell yes you're going back, and I'm getting some popcorn to enjoy as I watch!
though I had some problem with sea water It also kzread.infoUgkxa-FNYUOM93a388gi9a4brtSCEVmrHgJH land for finding any things very easily. (thought it would work as normal due to it being water proof within certain parts of the detector), on dry land and sand worked well. My first one, so still have lots to learn
Definitely hard to stay so excited about making video after video but your own time for $ is always worth smiling about!
Hello Chris. I have enjoyed your content. I went with a friend metal detecting twice to the central Victorian Gold fields between Bendigo & Ballarat aria, where we went & detected found tons of crap. When we were tired we looked at every thing the Old timers left for us to see very interesting. We went to the place & spot where Australia's largest nugget was found, It started to rain so we travelled a short distance to the town of Donnelly where we visited the Miners museum. Where we had an interesting tour by an old timer, I am 82. As we toured the wonderful exabits, we came to the wonderful FIREARMS display where were told, That if any person walking or snooping around the diggings {who was not singing or calling out their name or who they wanted to visit } the shotgun was discharged. The display of shotguns & pistoles from 150 years+ are great, Seeing all this old wonderful gunsmithing, I never asked how many people were shot or killed. I asked" How many weddings did the guns participated in". The place erupted in laughter. So now you know why you find lead in the Victoria gold fields. I love your videos & our wonderful country, I live in NEWCASTLE nsw. The Bakery = Pie shop close by is not to be missed. ENJOY LIFE.
Of course you should go back and bring us with you! I have caught some of your enthusiasm.
He's back!!! Hey Chris?? You don't have to answer this if you're not sure, but... Do you LOVE hard rock, do you LOVE it? 🙂And yes, go back! Fun video for sure!
Hell yeah you should go back Chris and you would even if someone said not to in the comments lol I noticed that the amount of gold in the pan is way better than most of the pans you would get in the creek. What is the biggest piece of gold ever found by hard rock mining if any do you know by chance? Well I am looking forward to you hitting this area again mate so have a great week.
the Vogusatron prospector 3000, for sale in your area today!
Of course go back for more. We want to see more gold.
Awesome stuff Chris🎉🎉 I reckon I'd be packing for a couple of nights and camp it out there!!!
Hi Chris, I reckon you should do what makes you happy. : ) Stay hip dude. and take good care of Gadzee, he's a national treasure. : )

Hey Chris, so happy for you researching and successfully finding this mine. Your rewards are truly deserved. Should you go back you ask? Hell yeah! I want to see what other surprises this spot holds too! Thanks for an amazing vid!
You’ve probably already been back there Chris, but for what it’s worth yes yes yes you should go back.
You just know that you are going back, no need to ask us. You also know that you will look at other places in the same area. Good hunting.
Fun vid. Hope you go back. More gold, More gold.⚒️🥇👍
Nice find! To discover what other's who has passed over is the best discovery of all!
Nice going man. Seeing those hands makes me proud. Hard work does payoff
I'm excited for you. You've got to mine that vein!
I love your joy in this! Thankful
Nah, don’t go back. Said no one ever.. yeet that gold into the next realm 🤙🏻
YOUR BACK!!!!!!👍👍👍👍🙏😎👍
Super exciting discoveries! Keep working that mine it’s a lovely location as well. Look forward to the change up to hard rocking. 💪🏻
Hell yes! You are definitely "rocking it". 👍😉
Yep, definately worth to go back and have some closer looks. Eventually Fern might sniff out the vein...
Love love love your new direction!! Thank you, chris
Congratulations on a new chapter. This should be a lot of fun for you. Excited to find out what you discover.
Love seeing you so happy mate.!! GREAT DAY.!!! 🤜🤛💯
Sweet! LOL, dagnammit. I add consarnit if the situation is a little more spicy
I was watching this video you made a few months ago and realized I am not subscribed to your channel. I have been watching for along time and like how you show the work it takes to find gold. I found you originally by watching Dan Hurd and Pauly. I live in Oregon and have found gold myself. Keep it up and thanks for the videos.
can see the spark there don't know what your plans are love seeing your brain flying around have fun 🤟😁
That looks like a great place to claim.i would be going back after a few buckets.hint,hint.i use a hand cart or dolly to haul by buckets.bungy cords.way better then trying to pack them chris
Yep, we reckon you should. Go back. I was just thinking of the comment you made about Levi North, the luckiest man alive. He found another huge nug like 12 oz. I started busting up laughing!
Please Chris, stay with the hard rock., mate this was one of your best 👌
The question is why wouldn't you go back? When you line up the reasons for going back next to the reasons for not methinks you'd be fairly foolish to not go back. Being a struggling prospector I'm obviously no genius but I'm looking forward to another upload from this area your enthusiasm coupled with your determination is highly contagious !
Yes, looks like you have some hard rock mining to do !!! Very excited for what you will find !!
Chris you are great and your excitement is great you had me laughing. All you need is to have Gadzi with you. Yes you two are the best on u tube. Keep making the videos.
Hell yes Skippy , work that vain some more
Best of luck this hunt Chris
Congratulations!! Hope you've found your BONANZA my friend 🤞😁
Your enthusiasm and energy is infectious matey 😂❤
Well if it’s down hill set up a zip line to take the gold closer to the truck you can tie it to a tree and adjust the tension so it doesn’t slam and spill gravity is your friend mate. As for the vein they always say the deeper it goes the better it gets here’s hoping you hit actual gold veins deeper great video with much enthusiasm (for a damn good reason lol) AUSOME looking species and sharp reefy pieces thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼

@@RICDirector you raise the lower end high enough that the weight of the bucket 50-75 lbs almost touched the ground when it comes to rest if you can’t raise it high enough use a tag line (line attached to the bucket) to control the decent . 1/8 th inch (3.18 mm) steel line works well with a pulley and is fairly cheap and he could put a vid on his spud engineering channel on the build 🤩😬 (more content for us yaaay)
"Stolen Pioneer Pauley Hoodie" BAHAHAHAHA!! Living in Southern British Columbia, I am subscribed to Pauley's channel as well as yours. Cheers and beers to ya Chris 👍 from British Columbia 🇨🇦
Bingo Ringo!! Crackin' video. That is what it's all about, well said. Grouse effort.
Awesome seeing you all fired up after NZ and getting rewarded for it! Good vibes my guy
dude this will change your life BIG TIME congredgalations ......im celebrating for ya.ITHINK TV SHOW ......THATS A RIPPER
Man that’s awesome. Can’t wait for more of the hard rock buddy
I love your pod casts. I dream of searching your bush , finding the nuggets . Not sure if I would spit or not. lol. great show.
Your hands look amazing , like you’ve never worked a day in your life
That’s a great day can’t wait to see you back there cheers mick.
Definitely go back, can’t wait for the next video from the same spot
Great video loved it 👍. You have got to get back up there. I won't ask about the blisters but be careful it can cause blindness 🤣🤣🤣, but seriously I really hope this pays out for you. Good luck and thank you for sharing your experience.
Yes mate! So happy for you! You deserve it bro.
Work that ground till there's no gold left...might be digging up half a hillside though!
Definitely a good place for you to get back to. Great video.
How exciting to find a gold reef out in nature! Well done mate!!
Regarding whether you should go back: "I'm transitioning into hard-rock mining for reasons just like this" at 9:05 Besides, the look of pure joy on your face throughout this video makes it seem worth going back, and that's not even taking all the gold you found into consideration
Looks like a very promising site you found there, a must go back area. Follow the line, I would also sugest to take the brown weathered residual earth around the rotten vein for panning, should be fine gold it it. I´m very curious to see how the vein will give you more gold. Looks like a very high ammount of gold per ton. All the best and have fun in that new spot.
Your Socks Made Me Smile!!! I really enjoy Your Happy Positive Attitude!!! Have Fun 🌞
I’m a working man too and the palms of my hands use to look like yours. There’s a product called O’keefes working hands cream. I’m in no way paid to endorse them but the stuff is magic! Love your vids
Congratulations!!! Well done Chris. Now to see what method you use to extract more.
thank you for sharing the adventure and information and your doing this as a hobby not a living
Doggone RIGHT you need to get back up there and dig like crazy and detect for all you’re worth! That spot is by far the most exciting one Ive seen you hit yet! Best of luck to ya, mate.
Do it Chris! Make that mine yours as long as you are enjoying it and finding the success you desire from you’re efforts!
Chris! You are crushing it! Love your vids man.

Its great that you're moving on to hard rock, you've learned and taught us heaps about the other elements of panning/extracting gold, this is the next logical step in progression and i think you'll find better gold this way? (uneducated guess)
Your happy, I'm happy for ya mate.
