In Mid October Denny Asher and Jerry Baird were hunting meteroites in the
Franconia wash area of Arizona when Denny discovered a 75 pound stony
meteorite. Jerry Baird believes the meteorite will classify as a L-6. The
meteorite was discovered almost in a single piece. There were a few corner
pieces fractured out but were discovered close to the impact and replaces in
the cleaning process. The meteorite was cleaned and pictures are available
below.
