Apache Tears we found near Superior
We went to a place Russ (Kermit) told us about to look for Apache Tears today. I've never been able to find any Apache Tears before; I guess I didn't know what I was looking for. But Russ was right, there were Apache Tears all over the place, and I started finding them on the ground as soon as we parked the Jeeps. We walked a short distance where we dug out Apache Tears we saw peeking out of the walls of a minor cave. We found several golf-ball size ones, a bunch of thumb print size, and a whole lot of smaller ones. What a fun day!!

Re: Apache Tears we found near Superior
Those look amazing all polished up. Can you PM me the location? My daughter loves collecting rocks and I would love gathering some with her.
Thx, Kurt T.

Re: Apache Tears we found near Superior
AWESOME!! Let me know when you are heading back!! And yes, we can use one of my 3 rock tumblers. They need to be in a tumbler by themselves, with a different kind of medium, so they don't fracture...
Sorry I missed this trip!! smiles, ladybug
