Hey guys long time no see..CP and Mrs. CP...as I was in the mtns. of North carolina this last weekend I went to a mineral museum which had lost of books...now 90% of all rock and min. books just repeat the same thing..so they get nary a glance from me...well this time I noticed one book way in the back in the corner.."whats this" I say..."golly gosh darn lookie here" ...looks like a Bible but not just any old bible the "Mt. Antero Bible"(comparing this find to something as good as the Bible:)) well heck ya..this is an awesome book..extremely in-depth..well written..all the info you could ever need..it's older written in the 80's but still an excellent read...what is the collecting status on Antero and White mtns. now? Are there still large lode claims filed on those molybdenum areas? any other info you can provide?

Great info! Sounds like you guys have a great adventure ahead of you.
With the tool supply list, dont forget the goggles to go with that prybar, and be sure to pack that snow shovel to help warm you up before you get to shovel dirt....hehe Take care and stay safe out there. We look forward to an update on your trip. Denise -------------------- Education is the key to the future,

We look forward to an update on your trip. Denise No worries, I ALWAYS wear goggles or well shielded safety glasses when digging/breaking rock. No sense in losing an eye! Should be a fun trip up on the mountain tomorrow, I'm very much looking forward to it. I'll try to post some pics when we get back! |
