Moose creek and tributaries and is but
few miles rom the North Fork.
Both these men are practical placer
miners, having worked ground in Alas

work this season will be largely of
prospecting nature, sinking to bedrock
in various places and determining as
far as possible the existence and the
course of the pay streak.

Is about a mile and a half from thu
