July 17th (Sun) 2022 Field Trip to Greenwater (agate, jasper, common opal)

On July 17th 2022, (note this is a Sunday; picnic is on July 16th) we are going up to the Greenwater area near Mt. Rainier for Black Agate, Jasper, Opal and Petrified Wood.  Bring dig and hard rock tools.  We’ll visit multiple sites which are next to the road, so no hike involved.
Meet at 8:45 at the Enumclaw Ranger Station.  Group leaves promptly at 9:00.  We’ll first go up to the FR72 sites and then in the afternoon, up FR70 to the Government Meadows area.
A high clearance vehicle is recommended.  My Hyundai Santa Fe gets me there.

Presidents Message

  • From the Top of the Rock Pile From the Top of the Rock Pile Our Gem Show is sold out. Everything is moving along with the show. We will be asking for volunteers at the June meeting plus via email. Please plan on helping out at our show. It takes around 50 people to cover all 3 days. I have not been out to see how the building of our indoor shop is coming along at Roger’s home, but I hear from members that it is really coming along. With some good weather, progress should really move along fast. If
