So, I propose what Will be a collectable picture. Someone with the resourses, time & gumption to: Take a swamp airboat with a 3X4 foot magnetometer or some variation(s) thereof slowly towed behind it. In situ pics will most likely be impossible. Bring waders & a fun spirit. Kinda like going fishing and gettin some snapper, dolphin, grouper etc. and after a great fun day fishing you realize that that cleaned fish cost you 'bout $60 a pound (y'all what know what i'm saying). Same thing. So&so with waders & a shovel holding a chunk of whatever with a big smile. Stupid-yes, do able-yes. First meteorite recovered from underwater on a dry lake bed? If I had the money - i'm in. I know there's someone out there saying "i'll do it". That picture will be a classic. Well, i've had my fun for today.

I don't know how to check that now without driving there. Lots of Cranes hanging out there in the water. https://tucson.com/news/local/as-many-as-sandhill-cranes-roosting-near-willcox/article_0195a014-702a-5052-9eaf-757989b7dc77.html Carl Esparza On January 31, 2020 at 2:10 PM Michael Farmer via Meteorite-list <meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com> wrote: Do you know what one inch of rain does in the desert ? ?

There is currently no rain or snow predicted for Willcox AZ that week according to the Weather Channel and weather underground.

Lots of rain lately. Snow those days possible. You might not get off the lake if you go out there.
