Additional Ganes Cr. Alaska 2004 Photos

Here are a few more photos of the trip to Ganes Creek, AK.  Below is Bud and a few nice nuggets he found that day next to the air-strip.

Close up of some Ganes Creek gold nuggets Bud found that day.

Mike and the headgear (to fight skeeters) that works best.. showing his just found gold at the tip of his left hand (glove tips)

Close up of the two nuggets that Mike found.

BELOW. The beautiful gold and quartz specimen that Mike found the last day of the trip. My vote as one of the prettier pieces found by any of my group this year. If I am not mistaken, I think this piece was very close to an ounce in wt, but worth even more because of its rare character and beauty.
