There have been a couple of changes to the schedule for rockhunts this winter and spring. First, the Stieg Ranch will not be hosting rockhunts this spring, due to damage to the roads that can’t be repaired quickly. So the weekend hunts to the Stieg Ranch will be changed to the Woodward’s Needle Peak site or the South Larremore Ranch.
Secondly, Aaron and his family have determined that he needs to receive something for his time spent on the rockhunts so that he can keep leading trips every weekend. We’ve decided to add a $15 charge for his services as a guide added to each of his field trips, starting this Saturday, February 15th. That means that his hunts to the Woodward’s Needle Peak and the South Larremore Ranch will cost $65 per person. That will enable him to keep the hunts small and focus on sharing his knowledge of the geography and mineralogy with y’all so you can find better rocks!
There are no changes to my fieldtrips for this spring. I look forward to seeing y’all out here on Spring Break and throughout April!
Regards,
Teri & Aaron
