NEW MEETING PROTOCOL - WE ARE NO LONGER MEETING AT MCDONALDS

First timers: meet us at the mine before 9 AM

Please note that the Hogg Mine is a federally permitted mine. Do NOT visit unless: You have permission. You have a scheduled private dig. You are visiting on a public or machine dig date.

Once you arrive at the mine, look for a crew member who is helping park cars.

DO NOT choose your own spot. Our crew must guide cars to appropriate spots so that there is enough room for everyone to come and go throughout the day.

ONCE YOU ARE PARKED, REMAIN IN YOUR VEHICLE.

The crew will come around to each vehicle, take your payment, and give further instructions after.

REMAIN 6 FEET APART FROM GROUPS THAT YOU DID NOT TRAVEL WITH
