Well last night in Yellowcat. Absolutely awesome camp site. Snow capped mountains in the distance, just to the right and lower stunning canyon back side of Arches NP. To top it off a short stroll from camp is a hill that is absolutely covered by agate. Big one's, medium one's and tiny ones. I left tons up there, so come get some. Three LFRB to send home of great stuff ( that's after I lightened the load) leaving some around camp for anyone who wants it:) Getting a room tomorrow and then off to Goblin Valley and Hanksville. I update with new reports as we go. No snakes today just a few lizards and an Eagle early this morning.

So, is there an easy way to post pics with good resolution? It looks like I can post a link but it takes you external (Instagram).

Not really weird, but not the typical Japser, Agate or Chalcedony that I typically find on our coast.

So, you tumble as well as you cab?

rockhobbyguy: I am very heartbroken to hear Lortone is going out of business. My motor on my 45c just went out and needs to be replaced. Since theses are now seemingly unavailable for good, does anyone know of another brand of motor that would work with a Lortone 45c.
