Hello all, while I'm not in Colorado today, my early preschool years were in the Springs and the Cherry Creek area of Denver. I joined as a new forum member because we are headed to Mineral County sometime between June and August. And we will base out of Creede, Summitville, Del Norte to combine ATV'ing and rockhounding. We have great fossil beds in north Texas with terrific trilobites collected over the years, but no geodes or thunder eggs around. We do have fantastically large calcite accretions in the DFW area. I have one 30" wide. I've panned a lot of magnetite from the East Fork of the San Juan River! No gold though.

Wheeler is on the list!

Welcome to the forums Bill!

Sounds like a fun! If you have any pics of your finds I would love to see them. Hope your trip goes well.

Thanks, will do. The trip dates are up in the air still. Summitville is on the list just because we like climbing Montezuma Peak. No real collecting outcrops there.
