Claim Map and Location
Notice
The
Paradise Reward claim (on the Klamath River) is located just downriver
from the town of Orleans. The upriver boundary is located
approximately 1/8 mile north of where Highway 96 crosses Camp
Creek. The downriver
boundary is located approximately 1/8 mile downriver at Boise Creek,
which enters the Klamath River from the opposite side
(see map). There is an
excellent access road from the Camp Creek
bridge which leads to the head of the claim across extensive old
hydraulic workings. Two more access roads are located just
downriver from Camp Creek. Access can also be made at the USFS
Ullathorne River Access.
There is a
huge
open area with lots of shady camping spots and RV parking.
Many trails follow up and down the river making this claim an
ATV wonderland! Being just outside of the town of
Orleans, this claim is very close to most amenities you may
need. There, you will find RV parks, laundry facilities,
gasoline, groceries and more.
Prospects: This claim is located in the heart of a
huge historical hydraulic mining area. There are tailings and
cobble
piles everywhere, attesting to the values that were recovered
in this area in bygone days.
Virgin streambed remains in place
atop bedrock along the opposite side of the river. During major
storms, this should certainly drain rich new high-grade material into the
river. The highbanking opportunity on this claim is phenomenal!
Friends of Craig Colt were highbanking along this
claim a two seasons ago, and reported that they were shoveling
three ounces of gold per day! A lot of gravel and hard-packed
streambed exists along the entire length for highbanking.
The dredging potential is very good on this claim, as
well. There are some excellent
natural riffles. The water is shallow and the character of the bedrock
forms "finger riffles" which extend out into the river course
forming natural gold traps. Several years ago, close friends of
Ernie Pierce were sampling on this claim with a five inch
dredge and located rich deposits in the river channel.
Those guys turned out to be illegal aliens, got deported, and
have never been back!
