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...

    Always check your gravel tailings! I found a thumbnail size nugget, no kidding! It weight 47grams. Now, I *always* go over my tailings. I found more, but little fingernail nuggets. They amounted to a LOT. So it's always well worth checking over your classifier's tailings. It's never failed me. Ever. Great video as always, Chris. I learnt lots from you. Now here was my tip - cuz you never know!

    Can you do more of the this is what the stream looks like normally in summer or drier winters to what they are like now? I don't think many people realise that what appears to be heavey rain can have a significant impact upon waterlogged ground. This episode was excellent and as has been said in other posts here your presentation skills improve all the time, you explain what and why you do things and give good historical information about the area too, which is important as that is part of your heritage and also displays the total disregard for the land years ago and who it may have belonged too in the first place. Gold prospecting is something I will never do but watching your exploits is most enlightening and the longer episodes where you spend hours and hour prospecting with minimal reward reminds me of fishing trips around the Menai strait and elsewhere on the Anglesey coast where you can spend days waiting on a fish worth keeping. It's about being outside with thinking time and good mates when not soloing. Keep it up Chris, Gad Zee, Mick, et. al.
