TrailBlazer 9" Backpack Sluice

Lightweight. Rugged. Gold-Ready.

The TrailBlazer 9" Backpack Sluice is built for prospectors who want to move fast and travel light — without compromising on recovery.

💼 Compact & portable:
At just 27 inches long, 2½ inches high, and weighing under 2kg, the TrailBlazer is built for travel.
Its slim profile fits easily in a backpack or behind your seat, making it perfect for hiking into remote creeks or stashing in your 4WD.

🎒 Clip-on carry strap included:
Comes with a detachable carry strap featuring carabiners on both ends, so you can clip it on and carry it by hand like a toolbox — or unclip it in seconds and stow the sluice however you like.

🌊 Flared mouth = better flow:
A 10¾" flared opening channels more water into a 9¼" sluice channel, creating a high-velocity flow that helps separate gold fast and efficiently.

🛠️ Tool-free setup:
Just tighten the wing nuts and you're ready to go — no tools, no fuss.

💰 Proven gold recovery system:
TrailBlazer uses a classic 4-layer recovery system that’s stood the test of time:

• Carpet

• Miners moss

• Expanded mesh

• Hungarian-style riffles

It’s the same setup many old timers still swear by — simple, reliable, and proven to catch gold in the field.
