Hi all! I'll be flying to Albuquerque to see my boyfriend. He lives in Carrizozo, about 2 1/2 hours south of Alb., I'd love to do a little rock hunting! I only have 2 full days there, and he's not a rock hound (yet!) Is there anywhere near where he lives we could look?
Thanks!
Dee

Around Deming there are tons of areas. I'm pretty sure the area you are going there is lots of agate around. There are several people on here from NM and I'm sure they will help you out. In the mean time, look through the locations area and you should find tons of info on New Mexico. Before my trip last year, printed of tons of threads on teh NM area for rock hunting.

Thanks chinook! Do you mean this thread for locations area? I looked through all the old posts, and there was one for off of I-25 south of Belen. But I'll look up Deming and google!

I think it was under Location, maybe just try a search of new + mexico and skim through those, in the number of days back to search, put like 700 and it should search way back for posts on New Mexico. Sandy

Go here: www.peaktopeak.com/blanchard/Lots of great stuff. The owners are good friendly people and if you don't mind digging you can find some nice fluorite. It's also close by to where you will be. Condor
