I just got my first letter from the Ministry of Energy , Mines etc... concerning switching one of my claims to a lease. Got my mind back onto working the
gravels with machinery.
Then you post amazing pictures of an amazing machine. Giddy Up! Keith |

extension....no problem.... not river sand but...leg geometry I guess(?)

Couple from a pond excavation...It can stand in 5.5 ft of water...Pass between 7.5 spaced trees..Climb virtually anywhere,eg.bouldered creekbeds...What
about diggin' test pits?Why can't I sleep?

The '09 would be over the 250k mark "bare bones"There's,just by chance,a few locally for sale,contact me at info@spydercan.com,for well under 100k,and their 800 hr machines,no typo,800 hrs!A few fixer uppers can be had,that can do the
same of thing for under 20k.But back to my brilliant idea,3 or 4 guy's with claims around the same area,split the trucking,buck up for some fuel
'n' grub....and beer(for after workjavascript:void(0);We climb it up that nasty gulch and I can dig you a hole 4x4x20'deep just about
anywhere,through the 5' deep creek,over the log.....Set up a spar tree cable dealy,and "fly" "drybulk bags" of your afternoons work
right to your sluice,trommel,flat work area,back door of your camper...Tell me I can't and I will.... It's so lonely being "THE ONLY GENIUS"
javascript:void(0); p.s. Kaiser Canada is .....javascript:void(0);
