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?

This will be the fifth time I rent a car for a road trip in the U.S., and the conditions have been different every time. The last time, dirt roads weren´t allowed, I was told afterwards. And, what is off road? Anyway, rockhounding is almost impossible for me if I have to stay on paved roads.
I suppose there will have to be a plan B, one more day in the Leadville or Alma area instead. But I´ve got lots of other dirt roads planned for this trip too. Also, leaving the state has never been mentioned when I rent cars. Then again, I mostly pick up the car in one state, and leave it in an other. This time, I´ll start in Salt Lake city, and end up in Denver. |

I think I'd look in to doing a local Jeep rental for the harder trails. |
