So either plan on bring a pair or purchasing when you get to town.

Also we will not be supplying rubber boots or a dry suit. Long sleeve rubber maybe available to purchase but recommend each person bring a pair. When you are finished dredging, you will be able to classify the material and take with you in 2 one gallon freezer bags. Along with the dredge rental will come a tote with two 3.5 gallon buckets, 2 sizes of classifiers, tweezers, two 1 gallon ziplock bags, plastic scoops, magnifying glass, vials, gold pans and roll of paracord and a snuffer bottle to save your gold. We want you to come back and visit again. We want your experience to be more than once in a lifetime.
