A few more photos from our Saddle Mountain/Fir Road field trip last month! Made it out to Whidbey this week and was greeted with the perfect low tide! "For April we did a 2-day trip to Central and SE WA. We were really blessed with gorgeous weather both days. On Sat April 23rd we went to Saddle Mtn for petrified wood. We met in Mattawa for the trek up the bumpy Saddle Mtn road. 11 vehicles and 20 people. There was another group on the ridge where we went, but it’s such a wide area with lots of pits so it wasn’t a problem. Within the first 15 minutes of digging, I found the nicest piece of petrified wood I’ve ever uncovered there. The rest of the day I found a few nice smaller pieces, and everyone was finding nice material." A very interesting find from Preston, WA Looking forward to the incredible selection of items @findyour_center will be selling at the show this summer! 😍 A beautiful handmade mariposite pendant from @peace_of_the_earth_jewelry - she will be one of the vendors at our show! Always finding rocks even when out of town on vacation 😂 A few more photos from the recent trip to Baker Lake/Swift Creek! @elemental.endeavors will be vending a wide assortment of minerals and fossils at the show this year. Be sure to check out their website - they have a really spectacular selection of items available online!
