Details: There is supposed to be gold here at the least. Check out the Travel Channel's Treasure Wiki Wyoming Page. It says: "Douglas Creek and surrounding drainages.
Handy to bring along: 1. stream sluice, goldpan, or dredge (3" legal - no permit - new for 2008) Watch for claim signs -- stay off active (the ones with new makers and active dates on the markers) claims -- not hard to do, this is a vast gold-bearing area.
Helpful notes to newcomers: Plentiful camping, all primitive - you are 40+ miles from the nearest store-bought sandwich or medical care - plan accordingly."
Directions: For directions go to the Travel Channel's Treasure Wiki Wyoming Page. It says: "Take 230 out of Laramie towards the Medicine Bow Mountains, turn right on 512 (34 miles - Fox Park) and go 7 miles to Douglas Creek."
