Yesterday we went back to the same place to look around more as we hadn’t even explored an eighth of that wash on the last two trips. We took a couple of friends with us that like rocks also and made them pinky swear to keep the place to themselves.
We found two more boulders of the red Jasper but have left them for next year and also a lot of smaller pieces of the Jasper and other rocks that look promising for cutting. Also we picked up a few that won’t be cut but will make interesting rock garden stones. I’m not positive where the rock garden will be yet. We have a pile of rocks sitting next to the RV in KY right now. Nothing like giving ourselves yet another thing to do over the summer.

One for next year. It’s the pinkish looking one in the rear.

We didn’t stick our hands or heads in but John left a couple pieces of bread for whatever lives in the small holes on the shelf. We did run across a lot of deer poop piles all in the wash.

Interesting big green rock.

A lot of the Puttputt folks use these to get under the highway. That’s a double one and there is a single one about a mile closer to Scadden Wash where the old RTRs were held. I’ve used them many times. The small one comes out on the other side near one of Patton’s camps and you can trail to Plomosa Rd and Bouse going that way.
