In 1979, Les and Idella Wade started fulfilling their life-long dream of building a gold mill.  Today, their mill is able to extract gold at relatively little expense.  Prepare to be inspired by their creativity and ingenuity!

“...we had a running joke between us about building a mill that would run a truck-load of material through, and reduce it to one pan full.  We were just daydreaming until one morning in the fall of 1979.  We’re not sure which one made the crack, that if we didn’t get started on our mill, we were going to be too crippled up to do it.  The next day, we started on it.”
