Saturday started with 17 people, 10 vehicles and 4 dogs. We collected copper minerals from an area south of Ludlow, potential gem quality material and great yard rocks!!! From that location we went to the Thulite (Ruby Zoisite) location south of the freeway. After returning, we collected some butterscotch colored jasper northwest of the campsite and some jasper with green color in it. By the end of the day we were down to 4 people 3 cars and 1 dog who were going to spend the night.
One of our members had a flat, which is a good opportunity to remind everyone to make sure those spares are properly inflated (as this one was) or they may be of little value.
Sunday the remaining group headed off in different directions after packing to go home.
