Tanks at Oroville

[Hoser John]

The National Guard were all over the place last go around with the flooding. Nice to see them HERE and not deployed in some Arabic shole and doing what they were intended to do. All of a sudden a half dozen jets showed up here also and flying all over the place along with monsterous troop planes?? Reaction to N.Korea bs or??? No conspiracy just don't trust them feds as our public lands,national parks and monuments are NOW being considered saleable... John

On the other hand we had 8 yr.s of O'Bummer trying to make everything protected and keep people out.
I just want to ne able to mine my claims. I don't thing the fed's want to take over CA, hell who would want to take over that screwed up place. The CA government is doing a fine job of screwing it up all by themselves.

Dennis,

Your right about the govbermint in Calif.

Mining your claim on Dog Town crk will be doable, but you aint driving in.
The road off of North South Rd was damaged badly over the winter. The road at that first wash is bad, although, with some elbow grease and some shovel time, the road could be passable.
However, the two LARGE trees down across the road just past that wash is another thing.
36" + dia trees will take a little doing.
No idea what conditions lay beyond.
At least the claim jumpers wont be able to access your claim.

That's in the private property. they usually are good at getting it opened pretty quickly.
Besides I learned years ago not to go up there with out a chain saw. For a 16" one so it won't be much trouble.

[Ornery Cuss]

That is one piece of equipment I presently do not own, I should have at least one.
At one time had three.

Sure would be glad to see someone with a bigger saw go through there.
I'd volunteer my elbow grease and truck to the cause.

Usually the fire wood folks come pretty quick and cut the tree's.
As far as the claim jumpers go I put a curse on the claim, that I learned years ago form a little old lady Voodoo priestess deep in the Louisiana bayou's.
Nothing like a good curse to keep the riffraff out.
