Books for Rockhounding Washington...

Gem Trails of Washington - by Romaine, Features over 75 of the best Gem, Fossil and Mineral locals. This is the first comprehensive collecting guide of its kind for the Evergreen State, Gem Trails of Washington covers all four corners of the state, from the misty shores of the Olympic peninsula to dust-dry ghost towns and abandoned mines near Metaline Falls. Washington's diverse geology, ranging from fossil-rich Cambrian locales to seams of agate and jasper amid recent basalt flows, is explored in great detail.
Along the trails in this book you will find:
• Gem-quality quartz sceptors at Hansen Creek
• Stunning jade boulders near Darrington
• The Stonerose Fossil Beds at Republic
• Blue agate at Teanaway and Ellensburg
• Petrified wood at Saddle Mountain near Mattawa...and other sites with world-class material still available for dedicated collectors.

Ranging from family-friendly walks along streams and rivers to hard-rock mining in the high Cascades, the locales are divided into four geographic regions. Sites are presented with detailed directions, site maps, GPS readings, descriptive text and numerious black & white photos. A handy mineral locator index, glossary, list of rock clubs and a full-color photo insert of rock, fossil and mineral specimens will enhance your collecting experience.
