Fieldtrip Report:

Graves Mountain
Lincolnton, Georgia
February 9th and 10th, 2007

We had one of the most fun trips yet to Graves Mountain this past weekend!. I arrived Thursday night with Steve Barr and Mark Randle at the Elijah Clark park to find several of our MAGMA members sitting around a big fire. We setup camp and prepared for the next days digging.

The next morning, we headed to Juniors to sign in and head up to the mountain.

Once at the site, most of us decended down the goat trail into the big main pit.

Several of us headed up to the upper cut where a lot of rutile has been found.
