Title: Sandsave
Post by: phrankhansen on May 15, 2016, 07:41:21 AM

Sand save aka Jay was gracious enough to take me out with him yesterday. I learned more in day with him than from any book I have read. On top of his knowledge, he was great to be around. A couple of other groups of noobs, like me, showed up and he explained and showed them what he did, how he does it, showed them examples of what to look for and even gave one group a great piece before we left because they hadn't found any. What a great human being. I can't wait to go again.

Thanks again Jay

He's an awesome Dude!  I have a slice of a really cool Jasper my friend Gina is trying to stabilize so she can get the coolest cab from it for me.   :icon_sunny: :icon_sunny:.

We had a great time Saturday rockhounding although I might have buried phrank aka Dave with to many sets of directions to our collection areas around Nephi. He's working me for more information!LOL palmwood13 is the expert for the Palm area, he's knows the area like the back of his hand.

I am working him for more info., but mostly I needed time try and absorb every spot Jay told me about.  I'm not sure I could make it back to any of them :grin:

I'll be hitting both of you guys up for info next time I head that way.  My last Utah trip (5 days last Labor Day weekend) took me as far north as Manti.  Didn't get out to the pet wood/palmwood areas but plan on it next time I come up.
