The PayPal works great. Just go to http://www.paypal.me/buyabook/ and pay $25.95 for Volume 1 or $26.00 for Volume 2. Send it as “friends and family” to avoid the fees and also PayPal message me your mailing address. I sell most of my books via Amazon or through stores. Only a few dozen go through direct mail so its not worth it to me to have more to this than PayPal.

Hi Taylor, you can start with some of the free info on this website about places to dig. Or grab a copy of my book which has over 180 free, public access dig sites detailed in it! To buy the book, check out http://www.findinggoldincolorado.com/buy-the-book/

You can also join my Facebook group and ask the nice folks there to meet you at a creek to dig. Local knowledge via the book or group will help a lot!

My brother wants to pan for gold while we’re in Colorado next month, however, we don’t know where to start. We’ll have to find a good company that can help us out.
