Buck Creek
Time to report on our annual trip to the Buck Creek mining district. As usual we had a fantastic turnout from our regular members as well as many new faces. The trip started Wednesday for most of us, but some arrived early and already had our camp setup for us, thanks guys!

Pat led a group of our early bird members to the Herbert Mine to collect corundum, they could only visit one day so they made the most of it.
