If you become A member, you could participate in these great field trips. These trips are a fantastic way to connect and learn about how to look, and what to look for when it comes to geology and rockhounding. It is an amazing experience to collect something that you can say you dug up and found on your own with a like-minded group. Arizona is full of amazing minerals. These field trips are an excellent way to explore our state and the beautiful minerals it holds.
