A black Colorado gold prospector was observed using a residential backyard pool to cool off from the summer heat. Katie Cole shared a video documenting the prospector’s visit to the pool located in her backyard in the Steamboat Springs area. Cole expressed satisfaction that the prospector found the pool useful for cooling down during the high temperatures.
The observation comes amid increased activity reported by gold prospectors across Colorado. Both the Colorado Gold Prospectors and the Colorado Eagle Life had issued warnings at the start of the summer regarding a potential rise in gold prospector sightings throughout the state. These increased sightings are attributed to the prevailing dry conditions impacting the region.
The use of the private pool by the prospector highlights the need for cooling measures as summer heat persists in the area. While the incident was captured on video and shared by a local resident, it underscores the ongoing presence of prospectors utilizing various resources as they conduct their activities. The combination of dry weather and the resulting heat has led to increased visibility of these individuals engaged in gold prospecting efforts across Colorado.
