The gold mining source is not out dated

Greetings. The information you removed (and SS restored) is accurate and timely, mining of the East Fork and anywhere else within the ANF is illegal and has been since 1872 (with special waivers extended for a number of locations including the Allison Mine which are currently grandfathered in.) The U.S. Forest Service has been handing out fliers to people at their Gateway Visitor Center confirming that mining is illegal, and they installed metal signs along the East Fork parking areas citing the Federal regulations, (all of which were vandalized and then stolen by illegal miners.)

You may phone the USFS at (626) 335-1251 for the San Gabriel River Ranger District which the Sheep Mountain Wilderness watershed resides, or phone their Region 5 Arcadia office at (626) 574-1613 to confirm that mining in the ANF has been and continues to be illegal.

The extant article's text and its citation are accurate and current. Thanks. Damotclese (talk) 18:36, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
