Important Note About Dredge Density Levels

DREDGE DENSITY LEVELS: No more than 10 dredges per mile of Club claims are allowed along the Klamath River. No more than 8 dredges per mile of Club claims are allowed along the Scott and Salmon Rivers. No more than 3 dredges per mile of Club claims are allowed on Elk, Indian and Thompson Creeks. Dredges are permitted on a first come, first served basis, but they must be operated to maintain a position along our claims.

K-19A - Lower Woods
Bar Claim

K-19A LOWER WOODS BAR CLAIM - This claim begins just upstream from the Richardson Bedrock Mine (just upstream from Happy Camp), and follows the river all the way and connects with our Morgan Point claim at K-19. There is private property between Highway 96 and this claim, so access can either be with the use of a boat from Happy Camp, or from China Grade Road on the other side of the river. You get to China Grade Road by driving down through Happy Camp and crossing the Klamath on the bridge below town. China Grade Road is just on the other side of the river, going in an upstream direction.

There is an old access road (2.4 miles up China Grade Road) which extends down near the river towards the lower-end of the claim. There is some limited camping down on the old access road.

PROSPECTS: Bedrock is showing all over the claim, so should be found also very shallow in the gravels. Several members have been dredging near the lower-end of the claim. The gold deposits should be very good, since the famous Muck-A-Muck hydraulic mine was located all along the inside bend of this claim.
