Now that sounds like free gold to me!

Josephine's pockets...Some pockets were fabulously rich. The best known pocket digging was the Briggs Mine near the California line where masses of gold totaling 2,000 ounces were taken out in 1904. Slabs of gold up to 3 feet in length were reportedly recovered.

Josephine's Nuggets... A number of nuggets the size of chicken eggs have been found in placer gravels and pocket deposits. The largest recorded nugget was found in 1859 on the East Fork of Althouse Creek below the Briggs Pocket. It weighed 17 pounds. Another nugget weighing 15 pounds was found in gravels near the Esterly hydraulic cut in the early 1860s.
