Quincy. The club has some 2,000 acres of gold mining claims in the canyon and offers lifetime memberships.
Training includes panning, sluicing, dredging and snipping. Rental of dredges and high bankers is also featured. The club holds weekend common operations where members mine together and split the proceeds.
