Went there Sunday and had a great day hunting for rocks, met a lot of great people willing to give helpful advice and what to look for in the piles, even the chert was great quality and took some of that as well. You need a waiver before you go but such a great quarry to explore and find great agates to put in my tumbler, definitely going back
