When thinking about great locations to take a vacation, places to pan for gold rarely come to mind. Great vacation spots always seem to be associated with the Caribbean Cruise, long sandy beaches, and Disneyland, do they not? Okay, I admit, the aforementioned places are really great for having family fun and relaxation. But what you may not realize is that one of the most truly exciting hobbies in the world is the age old search for gold!
The country is so blessed with abundant mineral resources and gold is an example of them. Panning for gold could be a good recreation for the whole family. If the youngsters are fascinated with the story of the great California Gold Rush of 1849, it might not be a bad idea if they can also have this sort of gold rush.
During the year 1849, the brooks and streams of California were exploited by the early Yankees in the hope of finding pure gold. Subsequent history can have an evil face, but who knows? To this date, there may be some loose gold just waiting to be found among the sands.
Just confirm that these places to pan for gold are environmentally safe and free from human hazards. The dirt will be nothing when one of your family members is able to extract gold from the dirt.
Best places for gold panning are:
California being the third in gold production
Alaska, especially in Chitna and Slana River
In the Ouachita Mountains in Arkansas

And before packing up to these places to pan for gold, guarantee you have got enough supply of food, water, prerequisites, as well as maps to make this gold rush journey a unusual one. You will also need the right gold panning tools.
