Fieldtrip Report:

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

I'm finally getting around to a trip report from our recent club excursion back to Graves. I had so much fun on our February trip that I rescheduled another trip for March. For me the trip was to return to the area where we have, for the past year and a half been finding some very nice specimens of iridescent quartz crystals and some monster size pieces.

Romin and Ken

We camped at the Elijah Clark park again.
