The second picture is a lizzard Phillip caught on film.
Third is a huge stump of a alligator juniper. Looks like it is about 8 feet across. Who knows how old that tree was and how long ago it was cut.

Was Phillip getting much gold? A shame to have cut the juniper...but maybe it was all dead before it got cut!!

Cool pictures, mom did you take the pictures of Phillip panning? I didn't realize the juniper trees got that big. Seeing the picture of the lizard, takes me back to those reality shows where people are placed out on the desert to fend for themselves. Looks like dinner to me!

I took the picture of Phillip panning and he did get gold but we are not rich yet.
While we have been out and about we have came across a lot of huge juniper trees and stups. I have an old one of a live tree. Will have to post it. Massive.
They live for a long time and there is a law forbidding cutting live ones. We have even found a few where some dirty dog has cut all around them, expecting them to die but they linger on anyway.

I like the picture of the lizard. I haven't been gold panning in a while. I still have about 0.4 liters of black sand I need to work out from when I was in Colorado last summer.
