Secret Obsidian Spot

While we were driving around in the area, we went to an area talked about in a guide book as a place where obsidian can be found. When we were at the Big Obsidian Flow, we were not allowed to collect any samples because we were in a state park. We were scouting this area to see if it would be worth adding it to the regular schedule for future trips. After some of the beautiful obsidian samples we found (including the more rare mahogany obsidian), we determined that this stop should definitely be added to future expeditions. So worth the trip! We loved being the guinea pigs!
