The Gear & The Grind
Hey, I’m Michael.
Gold has a way of getting under your skin. Once you find your first flake, you're hooked. That's what Eureka Gold Panning is all about. Real creeks. Real prospecting. Real adventure.
I served in the Marine Corps, and while that didn't make me a geologist, it taught me discipline, persistence, and how to keep moving when things get cold, wet, and miserable. Prospecting isn't about luck—it's about learning how a river works, putting in the effort, and enjoying the hunt. Every trip teaches me something new, and I'm always working to get a little better.
Whether you've got the adventurous spirit of Yukon Cornelius or you've never picked up a gold pan before, I'll provide the gear, the knowledge, and access to proven prospecting locations. I'll teach you how to read a creek, find the heavy material, and understand why one shovel full of gravel is worth digging while the next isn't.
