Additional comments: If you watch the first video of this location that I filmed in 2019 I was rather unimpressed in it, however since the filming of this video I have learned so much about rockhounding and the location in general. I’m going to leave that video up here for archival purposes but feel free to skip it and look at some of the more modern content below it.

I was given a few large specimens from solo creek recently (12/22) and one of them had a rather odd texture to it.
