Does anyone know if there is someplace close to moses lake washington (30 min away or so) for rockhounding? I'm on a business trip. I didnt get a chance to research. Thanks!

when I want to check out a location I use google maps satellite feature. Zoom in on different surrounding areas especially in public parks and the like, to look for rocks. Is there a local rock shop or lapidary club? Maybe they could give you a hint or two. I see this post was a couple of days ago... hope you were able to find something!

Saddle Mtn has petrified wood. Go to Vantage and see the Gingko Petrified Forest Interpretive Center. www.parks.wa.gov/288/Ginkgo-Petrified-Forest Call first to make sure they are open. There is also a hiking trail that winds around several large logs. The logs are gated in. Take water. Also, see Bill Rose's rock shop in Vantage. www.roadsideamerica.com/story/22439 Call first to make sure they are open.
