Thomas was just lucky they did not search his/their pockets!" But if you should go there and try your luck (be careful, please and do not let your passion for meteorites carry you away!), it will be of interest that the area where the highest concentration of Canon Diablo meteorites occurred is the area in the northeast quadrant that extends directly from the crater rim to about 3/4 of a mile from the crater (mostly smaller pieces). Larger chunks were found in the southeast quadrant about 1 1/2 to 2 miles away from the crater rim and another one three to four miles away from the crater rim in a small area about 45? south of east (or 45? east of south).
