Hi Tim & Julie,
Unless there is a site I don't know about, the fee quartz digging is
a
long way from Crystal Peak. The one I know of is on O'Donnell Creek
way east of Clarkia, Idaho in Fooldwood State Forest area. I don't
think there is a fee operation on it anymore. It comes and goes.
Anyone have any current information?
I've seen specimens from some other quartz site, usually given as
{quot}Clarkia.{quot} Suggestions are that it is actually up on Crystal
Peak. If
there really is a quartz location hiding on Crystal Peak, it would
make more sense to label it as {quot}Santa.{quot} These specimens are
nothing
like those from O'Donnell Creek (1 inch or so colorless singles and
abundant on matrix for O'Donnell Creek, and larger milky to
somewhat
clear crystals in clusters from "Clarkia.")
Regards,
Lanny
