The mountains in this region ar= e a soft gravel sand like mixture that makes walking around them hard, be= ing 3500 ft up doesnt help either. I had to stop and take a rest every t= hirty minutes or so to keep from tiring out. I went with a local collector, Jerry Calvert, and together we found two m= eteorites, one each. Mine a tiny droplet and his a ~10g with a neat shap= e. Together we spent probley $500 on the trip and four days of time. Makes = you respect Glorieta Mountain hunters a little more. =20 I have about 250 e-mails so please bear with me for a couple days.
