The last week of October will be our second annual fall camping and rock hunting expedition to B.R. and vacinity. last year we went in with the Green Hornet (97 3/4 ton 2WD Chevy), the Fort (4-Wheel pop up camper) and three dogs. Spent 4 nights between Susanville, Gerlach, Denio, Cedarville, then home to Chico. My wife is a jewlery artist and likes to look for rocks for her jewlery. She isn't a real "rock hound" just knows what she likes. My role is support, ie. shlepping the rocks she likes.
