I don't understand how the following line is open to interpretation but it's all good - I'm done.
Back on the topic - I heard the Canyon Rim site is new and it's located near the Polka Dot mine - is this correct information? The missus and I wanted to get out there last weekend but we just ran out of time (and money) lol.

It is part of the Polka Dot mine, they found the eggs when they were trying to level a spot for containers. Understand the money bit.
