Laurie,

Sorry that you and Mark didn't find it. Like you, I'm extremely frustrated with it all myself. I called Rob not long after our last trip a few weeks ago to ask him since he and I went there several times. His memory too was similar to mine as to the landmarks and approx. distance. He however, knew a way to get to it from off Hwy. 109 and from West Morris Mnt. camp ground area. I've never gone in either of those ways. If nothing happens, I plan to go visit Ronald (my friend in the area) who originally walked me to the mine some years ago after James Cagle had told me the story and had shown me all the crystals. I assure you, the mine is there. There is literally no way that any logging or storms could have hidden that much quartz. In time, it will be found again.
