CMS July 18th 2020 Fieldtrip To Greenwater (agate, jasper, common opal)

Past Field Trips

On July 18th 2020, we are going up to the Greenwater area for Black Agate, Jasper, Opal and Petrified Wood.  Bring digging and hard rock tools.  We’ll visit multiple sites which are next to the road, so no hike involved.
Meet at 8:45 at the Enumclaw Ranger Station.  Group leaves promptly at 9:00.  We’ll first go up to the FR72 sites and then in the afternoon, up FR70 to the Government Meadows area.
A high clearance vehicle is recommended.  My Hyundai Santa Fe gets me there.
