I am an amateur rock hounder in Northern BC, Canada and have been collecting most of my life. Still have problems recognizing some rocks, so will be asking lots of questions.

Glad to have more Canadiens join us. We have many here. Great people, all of them., Eh ! A big howdy and welcome from Colorado. You must be a very capable person living where you do. Not many city people could do what you do every day and effortlessly. Your id skill on rock will increase but most people can id few rocks accurately. We have some awesome people on here from different areas who are just absolutely incredible at figuring out what different minerals are. Amazingly the people who do lots of cabbing are very good and rock hounds generally throw out a few guesses until a consensus is reached. Post some pictures of your finds and let us share their beauty and learn about what you have been finding.

Do you know how they came up with the name Canada? The settlers all gathered around, put all the letters of the alphabet in a hat and drew them out, one at a time C-aye, N-aye, D-aye.......
