i am a member of G.P.A.A. , are the locations listed in their "bible" best, or does anyone know of a better recreational or 'open' area?

Crow Creek above Gridwood (35 miles east of Anchorage) has a modest amount of larger, flat flakes in it.
Sorry I don't know the name, but about 2 hours out of Anchorage towards Tok on the Richardson Highway is a public gold panning area that a lot of people stop at. I have no clue about its productivity.
Way the heck out in the boonies (and off the North American road system), but my understanding is the gold dredges out of Nome only got the flakes, not the nuggets. So if you are looking at metal-detector use rather than panning, that is a possibility. Getting pretty cold there, starting about now.
For a very pretty setting, Hope, Alaska on Cook Inlet would hard to beat. It was worked about 105 years ago and for decades afterwards, but there's always some left behind and some new stuff washing out. There's a excellent trail all along the river and the townsite is occupied by about 50 interesting characters, some in old log cabins. Others operating modern B&Bs.

I'd bet the places they list are all panned out, try locations off the beaten path :)=
