Hopefully the pics turn out. Some nice big gold and different ores, AWESOME raw copper, more cool stuff. I'm more into gold but there are insane specimens of everything else too. There were many interesting things to see throughout the spectrums of placer and lode mining and many different displays. I can never get past the "smells like grandpa's basement" aroma of those places, it's funny.
The front entrance steps were buried in snow so we had to find another way in! We also stopped in our favorite shop, the rock doc. They are fond of Dan and Denise there, and she did say that Dan "really knows his stuff". I agreed it's obvious haha. The lady there likes how we are more prospecting orientated than some of the other clubs, that aren't so much. -------------------- Level 2 member -12/25/16
