No idea no gold around.

Per Wikipedia "Gold Bar started as a prospectors camp in 1889, named by a miner who found traces of gold on a river gravel bar"

I'm a hobby gold prospector, and have read quite a bit on the town when I first got into it. Not much gold there! Ha ha. There are trace amounts of gold just about everywhere in WA. Most of it is from glaciers that came through here during the ice age from Canada. It's Pretty hard to get rich on gold in Washington state.

Neat looking tractor. I hope it works great. I've built a couple over the years. Lots of work for sure. I'm right down the road near Sultan.
