I like the way you turn a hunt into a teaching session. Bending nails over was a new one. My dad used square nails on his barn. Keep up the great work. Hire someone to do the yard work.

If nails were gold, I'd say you found the motherlode! That area never ceases to amaze me.. Thanks for a awesome Monday morning Gary!

I always learn something from your videos. Keep them coming, and thank you.

I have watched many videos about detecting, until today I have never left a comment, and the reason I am leaving one today is to express my sincere thank you to you for an excellent, entertaining and knowledge sharing experience.

I have been watching your videos for a very long time!! Wish I was out that way to go with you! Thank you for sharing! Susan

Gary , your the only fellow that can take a damp spot on the dirt path and turn it into a pond to pan in and find gold . I'm sure I'm not speaking for myself when i say that you are the "The King Of Gold Prospecting and one of the most knowledgeable guys out there . Thank you for sharing your experiences and knowledge, best regards from Lloyd way up here in Ontario Canada.

Square nails lead the way! Good info about the bent nails indicating a door 🚪 All those old channel rocks tell the tale of the old rivers paths Keep up the good finds! You are getting a good head start on me this year! I got plenty of catching up to do!! :) 🤙⚒⛏🌴

California Mother Lode Prospectors we will be out there hitting big together brother! But Gary will still prob beat us hehe Too much gold dust in his blood!!

I herd that when you bent the nails over on a door jam it was called deadening. Hence the term "Dead as a door nail". You are a great educator. Thank you.

That mystery object may be a small meteorite. I wouldn't wack it with a hammer until you examine it more closely.

Healthy activity TwoToes. You will be active and live healthy and long.

I'm glad you headed out for the hills in order to be able to share a great video with us... There is a lot of history around these old sites that is revealed by the metal detector. The gold is a nice bonus.

Thanks for taking us on your journey

Blowing off yard work to go Metal Detecting, shame on You 😏. You make great videos, audio great, content great, personality great, and great finds. Have an awesome day Gary!!

Best birthday present of the day, perfect timing. And no it's not the next day. Nice bits of color, like to see more of that area.

I like how you adapt to the environment and terrain, going from one site to another and taking the time to explain to us neophytes why and what you look for and how to approach it. I've read several theories why all those nails are in one hole...I personally don't think It can be a stash of new nails as it has those bent ones mingled with the straight. Here's my thought, They were all, but the cook, working late into the evening and when they came back, you guessed it the cook burned the shack down. SO, they all stood around staying warm by the fire and as the shack burned itself down they had to keep adding more wood in ONE little location to stay warm thru the night. It all makes perfect and logical sense to this imaginative 68yr ol' idiot...lol That right there is a good campfire story to tell the grand kids. Anyway, I always enjoy your very instructional and entertaining videos. Please stay healthy and safe so some of us can live vicariously thru your videos...just kidding, it's just still too cold and snowy here in Idaho to get into the mountains and there is hardly any desert left with public access to justify FREEZING to death yet. Roads are frozen early mornings but then turn into a ball bearing covered slimy, mucky solution on top of ice. Try driving even a 4x4 on that is just ludicrous and insane in these sub freezing temps so seeing gold in your pan has to suffice for now. Thanks from Idaho.

I'm hoping to get back up there this weekend and work on the mystery a bit more. A lot of my friends have escaped the insanity of California and went to Idaho. The gold, fishing in the ocean and the weather is the only thing keeping me here.

Thx for bringing us along for the hunt, and thx for teaching us what you know.

At least you got Small GOLD!! CONGRATS, NamVetLesTreasureSeeker.

You always look like your having a blast out there! We always enjoy Mondays with two toes. Nice little pieces of gold as well. We hope for big gold for everyone this year. Much love from Lake county.

It’s good to see you being you..😀☘️☘️

Spectacular finds of gold... all the nails are strange but there must of been a building of some sort there. Good work.....

You have a good time out in nature, Finding gold! Looking for gold might be fun for me . Awesome content.

Great video. I do like how you survey the land and share your ideas as to why you choose to work there. Good stuff. Its really is helpful. Have a great day!

The hills win out every time!!!

So true what you said, about its easier to see what your doing when digging forward rather then down! great advice again!

Some great tips Gary, much appreciated. Almost a gram, not a bad outing plus nice weather. Thanks for sharing..!!

Thanks Gary, I had today off and other than walking my dogs I wasn’t able to get out. Watching your adventures keep the cabin fever tolerable, and I always learn something from you! Finally, seeing you blow off yard work to do something you love is inspiring!

Nice gold loved the frogs in the background,put them in your back pocket for the next vid.

Love those mountains! Every time I watch your videos I feel like I'm right in the pines with you ! Nice to see you enjoy some free time out there! Joe gold

" If there's gold in them our hills " you're going to find it !!! Great job with the Metal Detector and I always enjoy watching your videos. keep them a coming.

Gary you are the most knowledgeable guy I watch and you are always a pleasure. I always look forward to your videos. Just getting out there is worth it no matter how much gold you find but almost a gram, not a bad day at all.

thanks for all the info two toes!

Using logic to determine what has been there before, nice work. Good detective work, now for the gold. Thanks for sharing your day of detecting.

Thank goddd ! A longer vidoe!

Instead of a door they could be from the original framing of a cabin as what I have seen on current construction. Lots of waste lumper has nails but bent over for safety reasons after removed from a house or cabin. See nails bend them over to not hurt another person working on frame. Thank you for the great video. Always learning.

Thanks for all the tips and tricks

Thanks for all the videos this winter. They have been necessary therapy for some intense gold fever. I'm just about ready to trade the video prospecting in for the real thing. I'm getting on a plane tomorrow. I will be stopping for a couple of days in the Bay Area and then heading for the Mother Lode. See you soon.

Great info video, cleaning up the land is always good thing. More vids please!

That looks like a lot of fun and that is some beautiful country out there!!!

Thanks for sharing your wisdom and experience. I'm new to the hobby and really appreciate the information and the learning opportunity!

I would imagine when finding the remains of a camp, the possibility of detecting a buried jar of nuggets keeps your interest levels high. Let's hear some stories on the next visit!

great video, you are a good teacher along with cool prospector, thanks

Great video, look forward to seeing more. I've watched every one, can't wait to see your next adventure.

Excellent video, thanks. Looking forward to the next one.

Fun video. Looking forward to your next one.

Good adventure, thanks for sharing them with us. That material where you found those nuggets was some good looking stuff.

I sure appreciate that trip up in the hills thanks!

Great Vid Gary!

Great as always!

Gary, I know what you mean, getting out of the fog and shade and into the sun at this time of the year makes my bones feel so much better! Almost a gram from 3 little nuggets is great! So far your ahead between you, Dan Hurd, and the Justin's at 911 Prospecting for the biggest nugget found, so far, this year. Great prospecting, Gary!

Thanks for the upload, I enjoy your adventures :)

Morning Gary, I actually watch this last night ! You are such a great instructor on gravels and metal detectors. We were out again on Presidents’ Day ! Thanks for showing us good gold porn 👍🇺🇸😊⚒🍀

Felt like the 1st class of the morning! Never enjoyed it this much in school. Better than a cup of coffee.

Awesome video love learning from you

Persistence Pays!!!!

Love the SERE shirt! I was up in Brunswick for my experience.

Another great video Gary 👍👍 good luck in your search for the golden nugget 👍👍

I hear happy frogs in the background. Love it

Not bad at all for a short day Gary, plus you cleaned up a bunch of trash.

Thanks brother say those hill's your always hiding in they sure are nice.

Nice work mate Cheers Bruce

Great video Gary. You are lucky to have that nice weather i am here in colorado with a foot of snow in the hills. No nugget hunting yet but i am getting me a lot of nice places to go check from google earth. Best of luck to you in 2020!!!

Deader then a Door Nail ....... Nice Vid Gary.

Thanks for your channel I like your channel because you way Your are gold at at the end of the day

love your videos

great find my friend, love your video' happy hunting.

Best hobby in the world 🌎

nice job. keep it going.

Nice those 3 nuggets looked good after rinsing off, that’s $50 bucks, nuggets sell over spot! I enjoyed the day out video!

Nice digging and he have gold .....We find those Prince Albert cans here in Arizona they usually have claim paperwork from the late 1800's early 1900's.....

Well, if that's pure gold, its spot price is just under $50 right now. So for being out of the fog, in the sunlight in the woods in the mountains, doing something you love to do, I think you did very well.

If there’s gold there you will definitely find it👍🏻 great video! Much more fun than yard work! HH🎧⛏

Like good old fashioned detective work Gary , you sound like Sherlock Holmes , and Watson , wrapped up in one , lol . Another good indicator is change in vegetation . great learning lesson ,you always keep us thinking , thanks for sharing your knowledge , much appreciated .

Great job Gary, hey while I’m thinking about it. I am trying to coordinate a big get together in June (13-14th) down there on the yuba by you. And it would be an honor to meet you and have you there man. Todd will be there with a few other KZreadrs, should be a blast 😁🤙

Almost a gram not bad I'd be happy also. Thanks for the video Gary!

Flour gold Wizards channel would call that a great day in Wisconsin

Good show glad you found some gold. Good lesson on the buried nails. most people wouldn't put two and two together and realize that it was a burn pile not a structure. Question, you wouldn't know anyone or have a really old detector that you don't use ever anymore and would like to get off from for cheap. I'll send the money before with shipping included in that. I'm poor I can't I don't want to get $100 one offline. unless you have one to suggest that'll work I used to use the old gold-bug 1, loved it, as my favorite detector I've tried to Garrett gold I like gold-bug better. Thanks for the show.

You nailed that video.....lol!

Awesome

great vid alot of info thank you

Nice little arvos Work

pretty good ol man , youll have that two toes hardware store yet. hahaha. great video boss , i have got to try one of these places out, i have a detector now. so maybe ill see ya. hangtown mark.

I like you when you are you;work when you have to,do what you want the rest of the time.My life goals in a nutshell.

Watched it again and ......If this hobby was a “craft” like Plumber ,Carpenter or Electrician? Two Toes is a 30 + year Journeyman ! 🥇

Where I come from, there is a greenish sandy soil with tiny black specks in it, called limonite. The black specks being iron ore, at the surface the material oxidizes into what is called glauconite: a rust-coloured sandstone with occasionally very hard veins of iron concretions in it. Maybe your two soils (green and rustcoloured) show the same fenomenon?

Good vid bro.

grats!

Metal detecting on the Florida coasts , both Atlantic & Gulf , finding coins & silver , no gold yet . That's practice for nugget hunten ;)

Great video, perfect morning coffee perk video up here in the fog & rain of southern Oregon .......PS: Every time Gary gets on His knees I cringe, I have to use knee pads to dig targets......cheers

I have the conglomerate an entire hillside and quartz all over hell like your old road there you wouldn't go back further because the quartz is lighter or just sweep everything around there I have broken off schist with quartz veins (mica schist grey and shiney) probably be out there this weekend
