			<description><![CDATA[ I am planning a trip to Eden Valley, the Blue Forest in Wyoming.  Hoping to go on a Saturday in August.  Does anyone have any recent information on the status
of the collecting sites there?  I&#39;ve read a lot about how great the collecting is, but most of what I read is at least three years old.  I will be making
some phone calls this week to try to contact local folks and find out details before I make the 4 hour drive.  Can&#39;t wait to go, that wood looks beautiful.
 If anyone is... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Well, I am finally getting to go out of town for a 4 day adventure this weekend. The wife and I are spending 4 days in Marysvale for our anniversary. I am
planning on visiting 4 locations. The amethyst site at the top of Marysvale Canyon, Durkee Creek, the mines in Bullion Canyon and I am also going to check out
what collecting opportunities might still be available around the Deer Trail mine since they have recently resumed operations there.

We are also going to take a day trip... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I spent some time this weekend at mt carmel in Kane county,  My family has a ranch between mt carmel and zions.  I was digging through the bank of an old wash
and found several small star shaped fossils about a 1/8 of an inch in size.  they were found in stacks of 2-8.  I will try to get a picture of them posted.  In
the mean time i was wondering if anyone knows what they are?

			<description><![CDATA[ I&#39;m new to rock and fossil hunting and live up here by the U of U.  I noticed that Cephalopod Gulch is really close and would be a fun place to start.  I
was wondering if anyone could give me specific directions to getting there.  Somebody gave me some info once, but I was unable to find it.  There are no signs
and there are many gulches.  It could be that I don&#39;t know how to look too.  I went up several gulches and chiseled away at some rocks, but had no success.
 How should I... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ First off hello everyone!  I&#39;m new to the board and basically new to the hobby.  My wife and I are going to be spending a few days down in Torrey (Wayne
County).  I checked the location section of the site and there looks to be a few places worth checking out.  My question would be for anyone that is familiar
with the area.  Is there any specific suggestions on where to go so I can make this an enjoyable outing for both my wife and myself?  My wife isn&#39;t a big
rock and mineral lover... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ My son and I went to the 52nd annual South Eastern Idaho show this afternoon at the Bannock County Fairgrounds in Pocatello, ID. We bought a few nice specimens
from around the west and South America. We are mostly interested in local minerals, stuff from Idaho, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, and
Montana--in that order and in their natural form. I thought I&#39;d share a couple pictures with you all!

<br>
<br>
1. To see if there are still any collecting areas around the Deer Trail Mine. This mine resumed gold and silver operations a few years ago and I just want to
check out if there is still anywhere we can go.
<br>
<br>
2. Planning on looking for amethyst and bixbyite at the location north of Marysvale near Big Rock Candy Mountain.

3. I am going to check out the mineral deposits in the Durkee Creek... ]]></description>

promptly got <strong>incredibly</strong> STUCK at 2.5 miles from civilization - facing downhill towards a ravine in 3 feet of snow, resting against a meager
tree, and in my RENTAL vehicle (because hummer is getting fixed).  The tires on the rental were crap and even in 4 low, I couldn&#39;t get out of my
predicament!  My cell phone... ]]></description>
