You can get better information from the internet and the book misses so much of what is available for fee mining...... P=wood, agates ( all kinds), t-eggs, jasper,opal, etc!!!!!!!!
Fee Mining and Rockhounding Adventures in the West  2008-04-05
I really enjoyed reading this book. It has turned out to be a great reference for our trip through Utah, Wyoming and Colorado which we are planning for next Fall.
We are going to be camping in our RV and we have planned a route that will take us from our home in New Mexico through the Eastern region of Utah to Idaho and Montana and then to Wyoming and Colorado. This book has really assisted us in deciding where we want to stop and search for gems, minerals and fossils.
I would recommend this book for anyone who may be interested in finding great places to rock hound!
Should be named "museum guide" 2008-01-07
Some useful digging sites, but more information about museums, caves, fairs, etc. There are better books out there for the serious rockhound.
Not Much Detail 2007-10-23
I liked the state histories but for a rockhound the book is not of much use. The book tries to cover too many states with too little actual information on each state. A good example would be Arizona. The book lists 14 sites for Arizona but only 4 are listed as diggings. Of that 4 only 2 are actual rockhound sites and the other 2 are fee panning at a tour. The other 10 of the 14 are Museums, caves, points of interest, and fairs and festivals.

An invaluable guide with lots of information to help with trip planning. The state histories are fantastic. If you love hobby mining this book is a must have for your keeper shelf.
