[meteorite-list] Fountain Hills meteorite
Does anyone know exactly where the Fountain Hills bencubbin-like meteorite was found? I know its from Fountain Hills in Arizona, but where exactly. The coordinated in the Meteoritical Bulletin Database give the center of the town of Fountain Hills, but the text says it was found by a hiker.

[meteorite-list] 2 new Nevada meteorites / Cold finds/ Statistics
Hi, I recently found two more new Nevada meteorites! Have you ever wondered how many hours and field work it takes to find a new meteorite? On the 2 new finds I have recorded the time spent in field, driving time and research time. My own thoughts, buy them on ebay or from a dealer! Just teasing! There is nothing better than walking up on a new cold find, versus a find in a known area that may be paired to other finds. The first new meteorite only took seven days to find, 8 hour days on the average not counting drive time or over night camping in the area. Something to mention also, 10 - 12 trips to different areas or old strewn fields to break up the monotony. Ok , 56 hours not bad for a new find! Not counting driving time and research time ! One more thing to mention...(The Bush factor ,fuel prices!). Total time for the first find around 100 hours . Where there is one meteorite there should be more. It also depends on how much time you wish to spend in an area before you move on. I will try to spend a few hours looking for more pieces with a detector but the true amount of time it takes could be several days to weeks . My second new find only took 35 minutes to find once I started walking . Drive time was a killer on this one, many hours driving to find this one. While driving to another hunting area I noticed this area from a distance that looked good . You have to understand all areas look good until you get out there. There are a few problems including fences, basalt's, closed areas, private land and roads that look hard packed until you drive on them and your vehicle sinks to the frame! Talking about barbed wire fences, a friend and I were hunting out of state when we noticed a dry lake bed that looked good. We had to climb over a barbed wire fence next to a train track. After hunting the lake with no luck we decided to head back to the rental car. We looked for a gate but could not find one,and decided to climb over the fence. My hunting partner said this was not a good idea but decided to climb over the fence with a little coaxing. At that moment a train turned the corner and started blowing it's whistle when it saw us. I asked my hunting partner if he needed help to get over the fence and he said no. By this time the train was getting louder and closer. I decided to get off the tracks. I don't know what was louder the train whistle or my friends pants tearing on the fence! You had to be there! On my second new find, actual hunting time was 35 minutes before locating the meteorite. I spent 7 additional hours looking for more in the area plus my driving time. You have to wonder why we do this hobby? I enjoy the adventure and you never know what the next meteorite might be! I have posted a few pictures on my web page on the new Nevada meteorites.

Re: [meteorite-list] 2 new Nevada meteorites / Cold finds/ Statistics
Good afternoon all! Nice finds Sonny! What a beautiful 'space rock' the 172grams one is! Gorgeous! I admit, is is a long haul to find meteorites. And like you mentioned all the problems one can run into. The time before last I ripped the inside wall of my tire and had to replace a tire. So besides all the costs of gasoline, driving time and sunburn, I had to buy a new tire. Luckily I did find a 22gram meteorite and so it was worth all the costs, but...one to get of ebay would have been cheaper. The image of the badger is great! Nevada has quite of few of them. I remember when I went with Bob V. we encountered several running across the dirt roads. Never saw on in California. And never saw one coming up the ground! Pretty neat. That is another plus isn't it, the wild life! Really exciting times! Thanks for sharing and good hunting!
