Home. Love Garnet Hill. Garnets are my birthstone.

Great finds!

[@QuestForDetails]

I want to go there for sure ! thanks for the vid !!

[@rockworkfrogs]

We're super lucky we live close to such a cool spot. Thanks for watching!

[@cynergy4]

Very nice! I love garnets, they are my birthstone. We have a Garnet Hill near Palm Springs but it's extremely picked over

[@rockworkfrogs]

Garnets are some of our favorites too!
Thanks for watching!

That one at the end of the video is really nice for Ely garnet. Wish I would have made it out there before I moved.

[@rockworkfrogs]

Yeah, it was a shocker to find that one lying on top of the dirt!

[@cristallier]

Nice finds!

[@rockworkfrogs]

Thanks!

[@rachaelb9164]

This is definitely on my bucket list. Hoping to do a Mother’s Day trip with my 22 year old daughter out this way.
Also, are there any good places nearby to find malachite, azurite, etc being as there is a copper mine across the highway from here?

Very nice granet👌👌 stay connect

[@rockworkfrogs]

Thank You!

[@tonyaogden3860]

There is a possibility that they will be redoing Garnet Hill. I think they are going to add more picnic and camping areas. We'll have to wait and see.

[@rockworkfrogs]

Will have to keep an eye out for that. Makes sense as it's such a popular area.

Hi, thanks for your video. Is it possible to get there with a 28 ft RV?
When not,can we park anywhere to walk the rest way?
Thanks Kati

Hello!
The road up is dirt but had just been graded when we went. Generally a pretty easy drive unless it’s wet. The parking area at the top is not super large, and I have never seen anyone with that big of a trailer up there.

[@kawi8461]

Thanks a lot

[@CocoaBeanBroz]

How far did you go off the trail for these ones? Nice job!

[@rockworkfrogs]

Thank You!
We hiked quite a bit up and down the hill and were probably about half a mile from the parking lot at our furthest point.
