12,000+ ft up Mt. Antero chasing Aquamarine!
Went up with a friend of mine, Brian Busse-he's been mining aquamarine from his claim up on Mt. Antero for years!! Was so cool to find some.

I could wander these mountains forever. Found this red jasper in the Superstitions, cut it outside the van, and turned it into a pendant. One of my favorite places in Arizona. π

Found this chunk of chrysocolla in Colorado and decided to see what was hiding inside. Pretty happy with that blue vein π

Found this little agate between Yachats and Florence. Such a fun stretch of beach to hunt. Need to get back out there.
