Spending a few days in Missoula with my daughter, Leilani, I convinced her that I had to spend at least a few hours at Lolo Pass digging for smokey quartz crystals. ?She didn’t take much convincing, but insisted that we wait until 7:00am to leave. ?I used the usual argument about wasting daylight, but to no avail. ?We pulled out of the drive way at 6:50am and ?arrived at the parking area at about 8:30am.
Montana
Yellowstone Adventure.
Montana Agate is one of my favorite stones to work with, so when I get a chance to visit my daughter, who happens to be in Billings this year, I can’t wait to head for the Yellowstone River. ?My time was short, and after spending a hot afternoon checking out the area around Hysham, I decided to get up at 3:30am and check out a gravel pit I located.
