Nevada is the top gold producing state in the nation.
There a couple of things to remember when prospecting in Nevada. Since Nevada is known as “The Silver State” obviously it offers more than gold. There could be ores that produce both silver and gold. If you find something metal don't pitch it until you're absolutely sure what it is, since a lot of Nevada gold is in the form of a gold/silver alloy called Electrum, and it is a duller gold color.
There are plenty of opportunities around Ely, located in White Pine County, and exploration there has been limited due to the remote areas and harsh climate. Bald Mountain District is located in the northwest part of the county and some good sized nuggets have been found there. The Osceola District has been heavily mined hydraulically in Dry Gulch, and there is lode and placer gold near Ely, Nevada.
Step back in time and spend the day unwinding at the naturally warm, spring fed outdoor pool. The "pool" even has a beach of beautiful white sand. It's the picture perfect place to relax and take in the views.
Located nearby is a shaded picnic area where you can barbecue up some lunch and hang out after you're done in the pool.
No matter how many years go by, spending the day at a local swimming hole is one of those experiences that you won't forget.
