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?

Last post i three and a half years old. Any news about the current claiming situation on Mt Antero. I´ll be on a three week rockhounding roadtrip during June and July, and I can´t make up my mind about this mountain. Coming from the Ouray/Silverton area on highway 50, and later North on the 285, I will pass the road to Mt Antero.
I have some experience the mentioned mining cities, and also places like Leadville, Alma and Breckenridge, but I´ve never been on a to a Place like Mt Antero. Also, I´ll have a rental car, which means I can´t be sure in advance exactly what kind. On the other hand, I´m a persistant swede, ready to do some altitude by foot. Should I save a day for Mt Antero? |
