Garnets-Ely, NV

Some VERY nice Garnets from Ely Nevada.  These Garnets are a deep translucent red about the color of a good Cabernet.  They are however, very difficult to photograph so that you can see the translucence though I have tried to represent them as best I could.  This collection area is in BLM land with a very nice covered picnic table and maintained toilets.  These garnets represent about 4 hours worth of collecting.  This is one of my favorite spots, and one which we will likely be visiting again soon!
