Alaska has the largest potential and known reserves of gold in the United States.
This website discusses recreational gold panning areas in Alaska. Check out:
Dalton Highway south of Atigun Pass(MP 244), Nome Creek Valley, and Kenai Peninsula.
Don't miss these free resources for those on a budget who can't afford thousands of dollars on a gold prospecting club trip. DaltonMineralRec05.pdf
You even get a dollar potential for placer at the 17 locations for free panning. Fees per night for camping can be found at. I am not sure if a user fee is required at the recreational gold panning set asides, but generally they are modest.

A Treasure of Free Gold Prospecting Equipment Plans and Commentary-- I gold prospected in Arizona 15 years. Am on a budget working on success mining. If you want gas money, cut corners to get to the claims. I began homemade equipment in 2008. First just looked at other folks' equipment; copied on my own. Took tape measure to a meeting or an outing & measured parts. I looked for plans on the Net. Posting commentary on free plans is offered. URLs are here too.
