Still catching up. Our 2017 Summer vacation took us through the national parks in UT, using Cedar City as our base. My wife and I did this trip some 23 years ago (pre-kids) and decided to take the boys back and retrace our steps. One addition, though, was making a stop in the road cuts and hills around Brian Head to collect agates. The area is beautiful but in Summer, subject to monsoon/thunderstorm in the afternoons. Collecting along a couple of the roads: Tried to drag this one home but it wouldn't fit in the car... Stopped at Cedar Breaks as well as many other National Parks: Eventually got around to cutting two of the finds. The rest I have to dig out of the shed. Both shown wet. Exterior: Interior: Exterior: Interior: This last one has been on the vib lap for about four days at the first stage (45/70). Thanks for checking out the thread Paul

Paul, those are some amazing pictures! I love seeing the areas rocks come from (as well as seeing the rocks!). What a fantastic sounding family road trip...it took me back to the times our family piled in the station wagon and hit the road...Coleman cooler in the "way" back held our meals for the trip...fun times!
