    Today we headed back to one of our favorite rockhounding spots, the Wisconsin Moonstone field in Marathon County Wisconsin. The crew at this 'pay to dig' site are top notch and very accommodating, they will make sure everyone leaves with some great moonstone! We have been back several times and love to promote what they are doing. It's a great trip for all ages, rockhounding Wisconsin moonstone will be something you'll never forget. This is such a rare mineral it can only be found at this spot in the entire United States. We hope you enjoy the video and be sure to subscribe, like and/or come on back next week for another great adventure.
