That's great to have your own claim. Some lovely finds there. Second and third are very interesting.

They look pretty good to me. How much time involved in finding them? Isn't everything frozen there? Jim

Jim, its 110 miles from my house through mountains, so are least 2.5 hour drive. From the time i get there i can be picking crystals within ten minutes. Find a weathered calcium vein and gently scrape the clay like mud into a specimen bag. I chase veins as far as i can and clean the crystals out of the mud when i get home. Say two hours of digging for a few hundred crystals.
