Goldpanning Southwestern BC and Vancouver Island: A Prospector’s Treasure Trail to Creeks of Gold
Jim Lewis Charles HartFollowing on the success of Goldpanning in the Cariboo, their first collaboration, Jim Lewis and Charles Hart now identify prominent gold-bearing creeks in southwestern British Columbia. The directions, maps, and first-hand advice included in this book are largely based on the diaries and research of a lifelong prospector. Jim Lewis has walked these creekbeds and studied their channel shifts, trusty gold pan in hand. Semi-retired and content with his “poke,” Jim is a strong advocate of prospecting as a recreational activity for people of all ages. To introduce familes, hikers, and nature lovers to the glories of one of B.C.’s most colourful regions and encourage them to reap the fun and rewards that can come from a gold pan, Jim reveals information it has taken a life time to garner.
