Gary and all,

Having just left there (empty handed, unfortunately as this was THE most difficult hunting conditions I have ever had--- 2 ft tall grass, etc,) I'm pretty sure the totals as of this morning was AROUND 20-22 stones, and perhaps 100-125g or so. I do know of several stones in addition to the ones you have listed, but I guess I will let the finders/owners post their numbers themselves, as I can't be certain I might have a few weights wrong regarding specific stones . But I'm confident there are at least 20-22 or so stones, give or take 2-3, at least as of this morning, but more may have been found today. There is no cell service out in the field, so we have to wait for hunters to come in to get updates.

Best,
Robert Woolard
