The Angeles National Forest has seen some prospectors over the last few years. It is interesting the places that placers have been found, yet not a lot of talk about them can be uncovered. I found this article interesting (it's from 2009 USA TODAY) because of the popularity of panning during hard economic times. The price of gold has held up there, so I suppose there is still a lot of activity. At least one knows there is gold placer in the national forest there. In 2009, the price of gold was around $900 an ounce. Read about the guys panning on the San Gabriel River. The fishing is supposed to be pretty good too!
