An El Dorado County father and son are accused of running a marijuana operation on the West Slope.

The two were arrested Friday, but have since posted bail.

Members of the West El Dorado Narcotics Enforcement Team searched two properties in the 4500 block of Ingot Lane in the Garden Valley area near Coloma on July 23. They said they found 14 pounds of dried marijuana and 170 marijuana plants. A rifle was also confiscated.

Gregory Gilman, 55, and Dalton Gilman, 23, face charges of suspicion of cultivating and selling marijuana.
