Hello all, im new to the forum and just wanted to introduce myself. my name is christian and im just getting into rockhounding but ive been gold prospecting with my mother for years.
Looking to make new friends who like to play in the dirt all over colorado!
Heres some pics from my first dig in the lake george area. Garnet was a gift from a friend we were with but all the rest were pulled from the same area

I was told that the topaz was beginners luck, everyone was very surprised when i found it, especially since i almost tossed it because i was looking for smokey quartz pillars.
