National Forests remained open at all times during the virus with a televised invitation by the Director for families to visit them as safe places for family recreation, making our mining claims some of the safest places for your family to enjoy and get away from all the nonsense.

Running along the road, the creek is quite easy to access.

The creek runs thru an extended brush meadow all the way thru the claim,

There is also a side road, FR 715, that goes to the eastern part of the claim.

Camp in the meadow by the creek.

Beautifully forested area of pines and aspens.

The bends in the creek make for excellent gold catching areas.

Known as a great snowmobiling area. See Trail Map with the pictures.

Eagle County has a rich history associated with all that makes the West the West. Native American culture, mining, agriculture, ranching and recreation all have played important roles in the countys past.

In 1865 the immortal Lincoln sent a special message to the miners of the West. He said: "Tell the miners for me, I shall promote their interests to the best of my ability, because their prosperity is the prosperity of the nation, and we shall prove in a very few years that we are indeed the treasury of the world. How substantially this prophecy has been fulfilled is demonstrated in the ever increasing output in gold, silver and other metals in the great West, of which Colorado is the greatest state.

Eagle county has done her share to swell the annual mineral production of the state since 1879, and it may be said the growth of the county was based on the mining industry.

I am a retired teacher, and got into prospecting as a hobby with my family.

I am 70 and my wife 67, and we have gained the experience to select the best areas to locate claims.

We feel we are selling more than the gold and minerals on beautiful land.

You would be acquiring an experience that will give you a good feel for what the old time prospectors must have felt during the days of the original Colorado Gold Rush.

A mining claim is an affordable way to enjoy the beauty of the land combined with the adventure of panning for gold.

If within one year you are not satisfied with your claim, you can trade for another comparable claim, just paying the BLM and County transfer fees which will be about $125.

Mining Claims as an investment: if you purchase a claim from us, at no charge, I would help you if you ever decided to sell in the future.

Mining Claims are a great investment, as claims go up in value over time, just as land does.

Gold and gems discovered in our own prospecting along with the beauty of the area, makes for awesome camping and prospecting.

There are no more areas on Resolution Creek to locate a claim.

Owning a mining claim is having access to a lifetime of great family fun and recreation, in a very beautiful, natural setting.

This is a 40 acre unpatented, gold mining placer claim, the Resolution Creek #1, with the beautiful Resolution Creek running all the way thru the claim, in the Rocky Mountains, and the White River National Forest.

The claim is legally registered with the Bureau of Land Management out of Lakewood, CO and Eagle County. You own the mineral rights, not sharing with others, on the 40 acres, and use your 40 acres recreationally for camping and prospecting in an awesome, beautiful area.

For the possibility of constructing any building you for others could live in, you need to file a Plan of Operation with the BLM for approval, showing you have developed a full-time operation performing diligent mining. This approval is quite difficult to receive as most cannot live there full time with their only job being prospecting.

You do not need a plan, permission nor a permit to camp and prospect.

You do not need to be a full time prospector to file a Plan for a shed type structure.

With an approved BLM Plan of Operation, a building can be built on the land: any building that benefits and improves the claim, though you cannot live on a mining claim.

As stated by the BLM, this can be the "construction of a building, road, fence, or enclosure necessary for mining."

Current usage, is what the BLM calls, Casual Use: panning, shovel, rock hammer, metal detector, creek powered sluice box, where no permission nor permit is needed to camp and prospect.

On our visits to the claim, we gathered in and around the creek, approx. 1/8 of an ounce of gold, being worth about $225. As the BLM does not specify the amount of gold to be found to locate a claim other than gold needs to be discovered, we use this amount for a 40 acre claim as a projection of good gold potential. Someone with more time may find more. Gold prices are over $1800/ounce. Though we could never guarantee what you will find, we did locate this claim in an historically rich area for gold prospecting.

Gold in just this past year has gone up over $300 per ounce.

You are allowed to post No Trespassing for Prospecting signs in and around the claim.

A mining claim owner may limit or restrict public recreational use of/or public access across claims or portions of claims that are actively used for prospecting, mining, or processing operations where public recreational use of a claim would endanger or materially interfere with legitimate mining pursuits.

Camp on your claim or nearby national forest campgrounds.

A claim owner does not need permission nor a permit to camp and prospect.

You can prospect as little or as much as you like.

Now that we have located the claims, you never have to declare to the BLM any gold or gems you find.

Eagle County, named for the Eagle River that runs thru the town of Eagle, is rich with trails, byways, protected forests and wilderness areas. Much of Eagle County is comprised of theWhite River National Forest. The Bureau of Land Management oversees much of the remainder of the land.

When visiting Eagle County, its easy to get caught up in the resort mindset However, if you want a change of scenery, find that small town, Americana setting in Eagle Countys small towns. The welcoming, down to earth vibe seems more like something from a storybook than a travel brochure, and the things to do in Eagle County embrace this.

People go out for walks about town and greet passersby. If you take a break between your days activities, do as the locals do and hang out in a coffee shop. Like most of Eagle County, outdoor activities reign supreme year round.

During the summer, things to do often include hiking, golfing, fishing and visiting parks. Spice things up a bit with a hot air balloon trip or paleontological project at a fossil dig site. When winter sets in, trade your hiking boots for skis. If youd rather skate, then head to a town park that the town floods every winter to create a picture perfect ice skating rink.

For indoor Eagle County things to do, try touring a brewery, winery or distillery, practice your craft at a local art studio or round up your crew for a night of bowling.

Eagle County has the feeling of the Old West and is away from all the crowds, noise, and traffic jams of large cities.

The creek on the claim is a unique advantage for gold prospecting.

Gold always occurs in gravels in the metallic state and when so found has various physical characteristics. Gold is dense and heavy, it has a characteristic metallic color, and it is soft and easily malleable (it is easily formed by hammering). These are the characteristics used by prospectors to identify gold in the field.

Placer gold occurs on the claim as small grains derived from gossan formed by weathering, and oxidation of the gold, copper and iron rich veins. Gold also occurs as grains flakes and small nuggets derived from the erosion of mineralized fault zones on, and upstream from the claim.

or $3500, paying $1750 first month, and $1750 2nd month,

After receiving your final payment, your ownership of the 40 acre claim will be legally recorded with the local Bureau of Land Management and Eagle County. The quit claim deed is the correct document to be recorded for a mining claim, as stated by the BLM. This is not a sharing with others of your 40 acre claim.

We live in Ohio. Our connection to Colorado is our daughter lives in Denver, though she is not involved with our claims. We visited her in September, then went to prospect and locate mining claims, as we have been doing for a number of years.

And just a note of encouragement for you if purchase:

My wife and I have located, prospected on, and sold mining claims in

California, Colorado, & Arizona, for 30 years.

You can trust we will process your notarized deeds correctly and quickly.

In that mining claims are processed thru the Bureau of Land Management, a Federal Govt. agency, not following thru per our legally signed contract, would be a federal crime. I certainly will do what I say, and would never put myself nor my wife in any legal jeopardy.

Also, we have sold properties on 4 sites online for over 25 years:

Landsalelistings, Landwatch, LandsofAmerica, and LandandFarm.

Our continued good status on these sites is due to our always following thru, as just one time we would not, we would not be allowed to sell on these sites ever again.
