try the Moonlight from Anderson Flat to the first swingbridge, got some nice wee nuggies from there. I think the road access bridge is still out, so it is a long walk to the car park. The Blackball river is nuggety too along the Croesus Track strech. Ross used to be good but it is all claimed appart from the East side of Mt.Grenland.
