There was an Alaskan all up in your Blue G stash!  All kidding aside, it's very cool that you share the location for all that wonderful jasper and possibly Blue G/no clue if it's Blue G. Most people would guard their honey hole more jealously than the recipe for Coke. I got out there about an hour before sun down so not much time to explorer. I went out to the 'central park' area and kicked around for a bit, then wandered up the 'pinch point'. Had a good time looking through the rocks. Didn't find any of the poppy jasper, but I sure did get my fill of the brecciated ones. I even found a little baby druze.  The pinch point  Home to a cactus burial ground, apparently...  Nice sunset to cap off the day  Thanks for the making that map available. I had a great time. |

Hey Geoff, whats up with the cactus pad pile? Any idea what caused it? Strange alien abduction procedures?

No clue. Believe it or not I was kind of spooked at that point. Someone in a 94 Honda Accord had been slowly driving by on a nearby road for 10 minutes, watching me. When I left, they fell in behind me with their head lights off for the entire 3 miles to the highway. I was really regretting not bringing my .38 with me on this trip. Weird stuff.

You don't look like someone to be messin' with.

I know they make tequila from Agave, but can you make it from prickly pear(Is that what that is?) Maybe a stash for some peccaries...assuming those even exist there lol...Never afraid to put my ignorance on display  Check out the GQ Agave farmer below  |

It looks to me like you found where a rancher bulldozed a cactus patch over the cliff, perhaps a few months ago.
If ya wanted Brown G ya shoulda said something. You could had it for the postage
