Central Oregon Region


First, a few words of caution:

This DVD does not advocate trespassing on or destruction of private property, including mineral claims. I do not guarantee that any of my directions are accurate. Rockhounding can be dangerous, so use common sense and be safe! Roads and signs change, so don't blame me if you can't find a site! And hey, if you can't find anything once you are at the site, then I can't help you anymore! There was material there when I visited!
