| Black tourmaline (schorl) from a quarry to the north of the Zimmerman mine. We camped near this site. | Blue tourmaline (elbaite) from the same quarry. There were tourmaline specimens everywhere. It isn't gemmy, but still nice because you can see its crystal structure. |

| Cottonwood trees along a creek to the east of our camp. | These flowers were blooming near camp. There was also lots of sage and some cactus, so setting up our tents was a little difficult. |
