References

The locations of where to find gold were determined, best as possible from an internet search using keyphrase: Gold Panning. Several results which listed locations where visitors could pan for gold use used for this GPS map. I used DeLorme Street Atlas to Geocode the addresses and entered the latitude and longitude coordinates into the GPX data file.
Enjoy!
