A winch with a looong cable is also most helpful, especially when you venture out onto those "dry" lakebeds. BFGs will tackle just about anything, but when you fill the tread up with mud, all bets are off! Jean

I made it home safely-had a GREAT rock hunt in Jamie's backyard, picked up some incredible new material(new to me!), and had a great time in Arizona. Man, was it cold outside, the water in the slab pans at Quartzite froze solid every morning, The well water at Jamie's house froze the relief valve so there was no water Sunday until long after I left. I took some pics, I'll see if any are worth posting.

I am so jealous of all of you! Someday I would love to go and be with everyone. I can buy rocks anytime but to get to meet and hang out with everyone would be the best. All of you have fun and tell someone: I wonder what Rockincajun is doing. LOL. That way I will feel like I am part of the group.
