Love these books. The author's first hand research is obvious. :)
I love these books. I have purchased several others for Nevada and Oregon. They take you to beautiful locations for rock hounding treasure hunts and they do not disappoint. If you are even moderately interested in beautiful rocks and the great outdoors, these books are the best.

Rockhounding guide is a must have for trip to Arizona
This book offers a lot of sites to visit but it is a bit outdated. It would have been nice if there were GPS coordinates like the New Mexico Rockhounding book has.
