Whoops! Did some poor calculations. I meant to write, "So basically 125
miles per stone or 256mg of meteorites found per mile." I wish it was 3.90
grams per mile! :-/
Take care,
Greg

Hey All,
In 17 days of hunting I hiked maybe 250 miles, found two stones with a
combined weight of 64 grams. So basically 125 miles per stone or 3.90
grams
per mile! ;-) Like Joe had mentioned about wanting to take something home
in
addition to his 332g find, in his case photos, I spent one cold and rainy
morning digging local Galena crystals at a road cut for a couple hours.
One
of the local hunters had told us about this collection spot. I used one of
the crystals as a scale cube in my images of the WI slices I made
available
last week. I went through several dozen to find one that measured 1cm on
almost all sides. I thought it would be a fun touch to go with a local WI
theme.
I tried to get a good photo of those eagles Joe posted, no where near as
good as Joe's beautiful photos!
Hope everyone is having a great day!
Best regards,
Greg

Hello,
Oops! I actually found 4 stones, for an average of 56 miles per stone...
now
that is better!
Best Wishes
