Color choices

Gold panning can begin with pale blue water, gray creek stones, and sandy brown pebbles in the pan. Choose denim blue and warm brown for the clothing, with a contrasting shade on the wide-brimmed hat and neckerchief. Give the pack animal earthy tones and vary the packs with tan, green, or burgundy. Finish with deep green pines and cool gray mountains.

Creek Pebble Patterns

Color the creek pebbles with a repeating sequence of earthy shades. Use a contrasting pattern on the pack blanket and rolled gear.
