    I went last year. It was a great experience and ABSOLUTLEY EVERYONE was so kind and friendly. I was telling my sister about it and she said it must be all the crystals. Anyhow, even though I have a bunch in my garden and a small tote full of of small pieces, and a bunch more on display in my house, I'm still tempted to go again.

    I'm part of a rock swapping group on Facebook, where I met someone who lives in this region who regularly finds these *amazing* druzy quartzes on their property. I've been able to swap some of the agates I find locally in WA state for them and I am in love. I need to visit Missouri someday for rockhounding. Maybe for this dig if work will give me the time off!

    I commented on how I was digging around with my hoe in NEPA while back , I have some different looking minerals in my ground and a lot of alluvial materials , white clays and black lava rocks etc , I found a couple perfect tiny rutile crystals , well I think it’s Rutile quartz but clear as glass and tiny , but just found them last weekend . Then I found a tiny twin crystal blood red but pretty clear .So cool !!

    Bring plenty of buckets for your finds, but he does have extra here to purchase. Also, I would bring some wrapping paper for your better finds, you don’t want them getting damaged in the bucket, so a bit of wrap goes along ways. The best who is a small gardening tool like a three prong tool for shifting through dirt or a potato rake.
