Available5 Points Claims
Overview
These 4 unique mining claims are located just a short 30 minutes from Fairfield Idaho on the Five Points Creek abutting up to the gold laden Five Points Mine. This area has an excessive amount of camping and parking areas already existing up along Five Points Creek, along with the Five Points Campground abutting the claims. In talking with several hunters utilizing the camping spots this fall, they had bagged out in the first couple hours of opening day of season. This area has a lot to offer the outdoorsman with exceptional fishing, hunting, atv trails and the forested surroundings for an excellent outdoors trip. When taking these pictures, I bumped into a group of old-timers panning the creek (on these claims)…where even with their inexperience, their pans showed nice fine gold (I did educate them about being on an active mine). So a lot of interest and reasons to be drawn to be prospecting gold out here on 5 Points. Full services are available in Fairfield which is roughly 17.5 miles from the claims.
