The Garnet and Kyanite trip is close.

For those interested in poking around in the mountains west of  
Clarkia, Idaho for garnet and other metamorphic minerals, my plans are  
to start on Monday, Aug. 11. I'll be down to Clarkia about 10:30 that  
morning. We can meet where the highway that runs south out of  
"downtown" Clarkia meets road 301, about a quarter mile south of town  
(N 47° 00' 22" W 116 15' 11"). If anyone doesn't care to meet there,  
drive on 301 east about 5 miles to where road 382 takes off to the  
south (N 47° 00' 14" W 116 10' 09"). There is a small parking area  
there. Road 382 is the main route into the Floodwood area (O'Donnell  
Creek quartz location and other garnet sites accessible from there).  
We'll continue east up road 301.

I'll be driving a gray van.

I'll send another notice on Friday or Saturday.

Regards,

Lanny
