Soapstone trip that wasn't

Saturday morning was dawned with overcast skies and light showers, but that couldn't keep MLMS rock hounds home. Sixteen brave souls arrived in Coulterville ready to dig for whatever. We scrubbed the soapstone because of bad roads, opted for serpentine and pyrite crystals. Both sites were close to the highway so access was not a problem. The rain held off during the digging and collecting, but started with a vengeance after lunch when everyone was headed home. Better luck next time on the soapstone..
