I once was waiting for the ferry across the yukon river at Dawson City yukon territory. I was travelling by motorcycle but had included a small gold pan..The ferry was taking a while to come back to my side of the river so I grabbed my little pan and scrapped out some dirt and sand stuck in the cracks of the rock ledge right along side the dirt road leading to the ferry.
I panned out eight tiny flakes and really enjoyed that while at the site of the great gold rush of 1898.
The next year I came thru the same area and the whole bank was gone, probably taken down and processed...
