    Black Panther placer claim secures the next reach south from the Black Mamba claim. It is also down drainage the main branch meets up with the north branch, therefore, water is plentiful on this claim. There are several bench deposits with abundant tailings piles, which indicate historic miners worked this portion of the creek hard. But we all know, they did not get it all and there are several gravels on bedrock still remnant. There are some stacked rock walls that are good sources of gold as well.

    The creek is much wider than on the Black Mamba and rocks in the channel are much larger. Some of the rocks are on bedrock, which means the bedrock gold is well protected, even in the larger flood events. The creek has many large trees that can serve as anchors for wench cables to move those big rocks.

    Access to the claim is good from the abandoned access road. There is a small trail that leads down a large floodplain meander where access is good both up and down drainage from there. Camp can me made down on the floodplain or up on the abandoned access road. There is a large rock outcrop one much traverse upslope around. Or one can build a footbridge over the creek for more direct access. Watch for gravels on bedrock all the way down to the Black Mongoose claim.

    The elevation is relatively low, roughly 4,400 ft msl, so the snow melts off early. Depending on the winter, you can begin mining on this claim in April or May. Therefore, it is an excellent claim to start early in the season, then move up in elevation to another claim as the snow melts and roads open.

    Miners and prospectors will have a life-time of opportunities before this claim is played out. Quincy is only a few miles away and provides good amenities, such as restaurants and accommodations. Quincy also has a modest nightlife, a movie theater, a Safeway and an Ace Hardware, as well as a series of motels and B&Bs. Sorry, no Wal-Mart. Quincy is also the county seat for the county, so you can easily file your paperwork on your way through to your claim. The National Forest Service District is also close and they are friendly and helpful.
