Redding
, drive
west on 299 about 27 miles and turn right on Trinity Dam Blvd towards Lewiston. Drive 1.5 miles, and turn right onto the claim. This is Phillips Gulch/Phillips Creek. The dirt road entrance is a little hidden, and a little steep at first but soon levels off as it comes onto the camping area of the claim. There are a ton of Horsetails on the left around the small creek.
Trinity County is loaded with gold, and is a nice 20 acre section of it that you would have exclusive mining rights to. The road is paved the entire way to the claim, making this
accessible
for everyone. Any vehicle can get to the claim. Off the paved highway, there is a short but kind of steep road that could be drive or walked down to the nice flat camping/2nd parking area.  Creek is right there, just 5 or so feet below.
The area is quiet and wooded, and although its just off the main road, its very private and has alot of wildlife.
Would make an easy to get to gettaway spot, Camping would be good here while you are prospecting for gold.
Lots of other recreation in all directions. Lewiston has a small store which is only 5 minutes away,
and Trinity Lake and Trinity Alps are not far either.
The city of Redding is about 40 minutes away.
There is about 1000 feet of the creek on the claim. This is "Phillips Phun," now make yourself an excuse to get out there and enjoy the outdoors.

An "Unpatented Mining Claim" means you own the "Mineral Rights" to the land and NOT the land itself. The land itself, is still owned by the Federal Government.
All paperwork is prepared and ready to filed with the California BLM.
You are allowed to prospect the surface material of your claim including panning, sluicing, dry washing, metal detecting, and rock hounding for all precious metals and minerals (not just gold).
As with ALL UNPATENTED MINING CLAIMS on Forest Service land, you must file a "Plan of Operation" for any extensive mining operations beyond casual prospecting with the U.S. Forest Service.
You may not sell "sand and gravel" from your claim, only precious metals and minerals. Check with the Bureau of Land Management if in doubt.
You may not build a personal residence of any kind.
You cannot (at this time)"patent" this, or any unpatented mining claim. Which means, you cannot purchase the land from the Government for residential use. Mining claim "patents" have not been granted since 1992, and will take an act of Congress to do so again.
You may camp on your claim for two weeks if not prospecting, and you may camp virtually as long as you want if you are actively prospecting. Always check with BLM about extended camping related to prospecting.  You can also recreate, hunt, quad, swim, horseback ride and do any activity besides prospect.
Once a placer claim is staked and filed with the proper agencies, it must be maintained on an annual basis. Proof that it is properly maintained must be filed with the appropriate County, and State office of the BLM on or before 12 noon, September 1
st
of each year.
Mining Claims are considered "real property" and as such, can be sold, leased, and transferred to family members.
As long as you complete your paperwork and pay your yearly fees on time, your mining claim CANNOT be taken from you.
The owner of an unpatented mining claim may
either
, pay the annual 5.00 yearly maintenance fee
or
, perform a minimum of  0 worth of annual labor or improvements (EXAMPLE: Road improvement, clearing overgrown vegetation from access road, trash removal, etc....) on each claim by filing a Small Miners Waiver. You may file this waiver if you own 10 claims or less nationwide. (Check with the BLM for that fee amount.)
Currently the yearly maintenance fee for a 20 Acre mining claim to the BLM is 5.
