Was in BC this summer and a rock buddy popped over to the dig I was at. He dropped off a few slabs of local jasper and rough jade I wanted to share with ya.
It was one of those trips from hell going in, 23 hrs to go 900km lmao! Ended up stuck behind a burning tanker truck for 13 hrs in Jasper national park.

Van gogh jasper.

Unknown jasper.

Jade river cobble.

because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns -- the ones we don't know we don't know.

rocknrob: That was one heck of a windstorm that thankfully missed me. I guess Seatac almost hit 60mph gusts. I bet those were some fun landings Nov 20, 2024 21:55:16 GMT -5
