Rock & Gem magazine, issue Feb. 2008, and Gem Trails of Utah. Last month, after reading the article in Rock & Gem, I had to check out the site for myself. There is no exageration on the amount of agate laying everywhere. The toughest decision, is what to take and what to leave behing. I found that looking alongside the graded road to agate hill, you could find many a good specimen. No special tools or equipment needed. Just a bucket to put them in.
