Thanks,These came from Scenic,SD the town that sold for $700,000.00 last month.I hunt on the Merrill ranch or near there.I posted a rough in my last bunch I posted.They are very to find unless it raining.The dust seems to stick to dry stone's like a magnet. Roger

Wow! I knew Scenic was for sale but never heard someone bought it. Any idea on who the buyer was?
Is that ranch anywhere close to the Indian Creek area? Most places I go to rock hunting I'd be terrified to stick around when it started raining for fear I wouldn't make it out until next summer. lol

Wow, great stones and nice wraps. Kate, "Cristi Ni Iglesio" or something like that. Thats a christian splinter-group from the Philippines. We even had that report in our Papers here in Hong Kong. If you want material, you better get it soon, as the town will be declared private propperty soon.

Roger, these are amazing. Such a contrast to the TeePee canyon stuff you post. I gotta look up the town selling. Sounds like an interesting story.
