Gold panning vlogger
I’m Wade. I make videos about panning for gold on creeks in the north and camping beside them, and I sell field logs, creek guides and two short courses.
Four parts of the hobby and four ways in. Pick a part and a step, and every tile is a real video, guide or course.

Six short lessons on the pan, the swirl and the gravel, from a first scoop to a clean finish.

I live in the north, where the creeks run clear in summer and freeze at the edges by October. My grandfather gave me his old steel pan when I was twelve, and I have not stopped going back to the water since.
Each week I post one video from a creek. Sometimes it is a pan of gravel and a few flecks of colour. Sometimes it is just a tent, a fire and a long wait for a kettle. I find a few small bits of gold in a good season, and I am happy with that.
The guides, logs and courses are what I would have liked as a beginner: plain, short and written down by someone who still gets cold hands.
