Edition DescriptionRevised edition
SynopsisRockhounding Colorado takes you to 100 of the best rockhounding sites in the state. Search for amethyst and quartz at the Crystal Hill Mine, check out the view at Douglas Pass while looking for leaf imprints and insect fossils, or head to Saint Peters Dome to uncover green, white, and purple fluorite.
Another great source to be compiled with my other sources to get more information so I am not so blind going into the remote areas.
It's good to compare different publications of Rockhounding book as they are all a bit different and there is more to be gleaned before departing for any one location with only one source of information. This 2017 edition seems to be the newest one released that is actually more up to date.
