Rockhounding & Gold Panning

Rockhounding Fraser River. The Fraser River is a rockhound and gold panners paradise. Every year after highwater season (freshet) more and more rocks have tumbled down the river exposing themselves on bars and beaches ready for the picking. Whether it’s hunting for soapstone, jasper, agate, and jade or gold panning for nuggets there are plenty of opportunities between Lytton and Lillooet along the Fraser River.
