Hello everyone! I thought I should make one of these since it looks like it's been awhile since anyone has done one, but yet so many people here are giving out helpful and educational information! So, I figured I should contribute too.
I'm from Colorado Springs and have been out hounding all over most of the state, but only recently began exploring my own local area harder and I've been blown away at the results (go figure, right?). Some of my best finds have even been entirely on accident, which is crazy for being so close to this city, but I still have so much more to explore. I can't wait to share both my past and future adventures with you all, but in the meantime, enjoy a picture from one of my favorite digs. One of those great 'on accident' finds no less! |

Welcome to the forums, always great to hear that the info the forum contains has been useful.
I have to agree that the best of things found are often found by mistake, or by chance. I've had times like that, Once while hounding with my family, we where heading back to the vehicle after finding some cool stuffs, and i happened to spot a small crystal poking out of the ground, and about 35 - 50 Min later we pulled out a huge chunk of thunder egg that contained calcite crystals and agate the size of a basketball. So heavy it is now a corner yard rock that never moves. I look forward to adventures you post in the future! Always great to see people having fun finding things for themselves, especially near there own area. Would love to see more pictures of your finds, especially after you get them cleaned up! Goodluck and have fun. -------------------- Proud CP lifetime club member,
