    The rock formations are beautiful . So you can camp there too . That place is magical and incredible. Gods country it’s spectacular .

      You sure can camp there. We didn't but if we had we would have explored a lot more. There was so much area to cover around there. Looking forward to going back.

    City of rocks was super cool. Amazing geological wonder. The jasper was my favorite. So many pieces you picked up I thought I want to tumble that. The desert is so awesome! The beautiful views the rocks and all the other cool stuff. Thank for sharing

    Yes, many of the older generations, including my hairdresser.
    I'm deeply interest in what you do. We are in a 30 foot skoolie, so we are limited on what roads we take to roam and find treasures.
    We are heading to Demmings right now.

    Wow, what an amazing adventure here. Oh you definitely go up at least 10 points with that hat on Liz! This area is so cool, wow, a lot of fun. It all makes sense now that the Sombrero carved all of this area. Climbing through it was awesome! "I Wanna Rock" wow some amazing finds out there, I always forget my spray bottle, just made a space for it in my backpack! Beautiful colors, such cool variety out here. I loved that you left a love note behind! I definitely have to make it out here, its been added to the map! That's definitely nice about the vegetation there! I would love to see you come back here! Vending machines are the worst when that happens!

      Yeah geologists don't know what they are talking about. The Sombrero formed much of the Southwest. 🤣 I think we forgot to mention your love note you left too. It's sometimes funner than bringing them home.

    My Grandparents would go out in rollers with a scarf over them but not wet hair, lol Such a beautiful area to be at. The rocks are so unique and beautiful :) I like how they have a can return container right next to the machine that gives you nothing, lol Now that is frustrating !! Enjoyed watching 😃👍

    I thought that the canyon you guys walked through had a channel carved for collecting rain water. I dunno but then you showed the collecting pools I was like YUP! Wish there were more parks cool with rockhounding. Some nice finds considering you were just surface collecting next to the trail in such a picked over area! I love finding sexy rocks lol!

    • @TheAdventureCloset

    ok, so I qualify for "old fart" and I camped several times at City of Rocks before it was a "real" campground, there were no Visitor center or fancy campsites. And I've been to Rockhound State Park on one of my AZ walkabouts, thanks for taking me back down memory lane.

    • @TheAdventureCloset
      @TheAdventureCloset  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's awesome! I bet the finds were more plentiful then too. Too bad it isn't free anymore. $5 wasn't too bad though. Not sure how much camping was. We stayed somewhere out of the park on BLM land.

    thats a big ahh elephant yea . whats up with all the x-rated rocks lol , liz hat cant fit through some of those passages she is deff protected from the sun today , some of the plants that are dying is because liz's hat is blocking the sun from hitting them . even the fly wants to be on youtube , define "a few rocks " really nice finds out there that botryoidal piece of perlite almost sounded like shovel material , i would have just gave it to her when i heard her talking about it three different times i think , only so many concussion's a brain can take , lol
