A couple of years ago, I was offered a consulting job on a gold claim in Western Montana. A couple had retired and purchased a property that was adjacent to a gold claim, and they asked if I would come out and show them where to dig. They offered room and board, plus a fee, and I figured it would take about a month to scout and sample the entire claim (20 acres). I just had too much going on at the time to take a month off, so I declined to go. I did offer to provide them with information from maps and aerial photos to guide them, but I never heard back.
During my move, the trip will take me through the southeast corner of Wyoming, so I don't think I will make that far west. The offer is appreciated, though.
