Hi all,
One of my trips roaming the hills with my GB2 in the cold and wet....
largest bit 2grams.
Sure it does take more effort this time of the year, a bit more gear and warmer clothing
the rewards can be still there...!

Gold hunting especially this time of the year my backpack does include a small first aid kit, plenty of bandages, survival blanket a must!, whistle, GPS, also am looking at a Locator Beacon,
allways good to take a bit of extra food just incase.
Call me a bloody nana but one dodgy mistake! is all it takes.

Cheers for sharing Digger,

Just goes to show I should have followed my Hunch to head north rather than West.

Might bump into early July if your still Swinging your GB2, i'd really be interested to see a side by side of it with my GB Pro/SE
