Trinity Creek / Featherville Claims
Overview
The long awaited “Featherville/Rocky Bar” claims which I have seen a lot of requests to get listed. If you are looking for sites with easy well-graded access and ample camping, these are ones you should consider. These mining claims are positioned about a mile from Featherville on Trinity Creek (a gold bearing tributary the SF Boise River). When taking a visit in Featherville, you may notice the large tailing piles at the Feather River & SF Boise confluence, but you will also see some of the tailings randomly farther west on the SF Boise, as it is a rich riverbed as well. It is pavement all the way into Featherville & a well graded 2 lane gravel NF 172 road that cars can even access to the claims. I will note that there are “other people’s” mining claims abutting and extending all throughout Trinity Creek for many years, showing the history of this being a prospector’s paradise. Year-round water on the sites, as well as ample camping on and around any of these claims. For recreation in the area, there are SEVERAL hot-springs to soak in (around Pine & Featherville), excellent hunting (seen elk multiple times “on” these claims) & fishing, so these have a wide variety of other recreational activities in the area to enjoy. There are services in both Featherville (1 mile to east) & Pine (9 miles to the south). Go check these amazing claims out for yourself.
Idaho Gold Mining is willing to do a “bulk” purchase of $4,500 for both claims, or individual prices listed below.
