I love the video. Great job! However.. the music (though great, I love Jazz) makes me think Linus and Snoopy are going to walk by.

I visited for the summer of 1970, as a 12 year old kid was a great adventure. I have many fond memories and still have my share of our summers gold mining. about an ounce worth plus a 1/3 ounce nugget. I am glad that the site is being preserved.
