Having Fun, Meeting Dp Members & Au

[Gerry in Idaho]

Rye Patch is a scenic area (for its own reasons), this time of yr.  If you can catch warm Temps in 60s, no wind, and sunny days, it doesn't get much better.   Add the chance to cross paths with some DP members makes it even better.  A few other things allowing an adventurous trip, a hairy legged tarantula, some more intricate nuggets and always a handful of lucky crystals. 

I have been blessed so far with all.  Including chatting with members,  Condor,  Bill in CO,  Chet and Tom from  CA., and today hopefully a few others. 

Memories to add to my scrapbook.

Well said.

I hardly seen anyone out there this year, when the soil was perfect!  But, I’ve met dozens of fellow Prospectors out there over the years.  Always, great to met like minded people out in the middle of nowhere!

Glad you are having fun and finding some nice items.

The crystals are very nice, what did their ID show up as, and when you have crystals like that you know your near gold.

Have fun and stay safe.

I would have taken the furry little fella home as a pet! 

Surely the crystals don't have metal content, I am guessing they were eyeball finds, all the same super cool you can find crystals!

That landscape with the snow on the hill and the foreground could have easily been taken around here, surprising how similar some places can look.

The place is a wonderland for crystals...they will ID as a zero on the Nox so you have to listen carefully.

As I've grown older,  I learn to appreciate the varying wildlife, interesting creatures and magestic scenery of the various landscapes I visit while chasing gold.  Tarantulas are actually quite rare at Rye Patch and this little guy is only the 4th in 25 yrs.   I consider an opportunity to see one more exciting than a gold nugget.

well done on all of it as for crystals i like that one draw out there where there are thousands of limonite  cubes
