Pushing this van to the LIMIT🚐Off Roading & Rock Hounding Quartz & Copper Ore Verdi, California

Published 2024-06-14
Me and Ozzie took a small exploration to California/ Nevada border in our unfinished camper Van Conversion to rock hound some awesome rocks.
We went to the Crystal Peak Mine in Verdi California. I was hoping to find some Quartz crystals but the mine has been around since World War II so it is pretty dug up and excavated.
We took the off road tied trail up the mountain and the trail got sketchier and more narrow as we reached the top when we found out that we went to the wrong “crystal peak”. I found the coordinates and we finally made it.
We found some Quartz with copper ore which gives off this amazing blue feature to the Quartz.

39.5956, -120.0782
Coordinates to the mine. There is a campground around the corner called “Lookout Campground” that can be used as a preference point.

Please join Ozzie & I as we convert this 2006 Ford E350 Econoline Cargo van into a tiny home on wheels to explore the great lands of America and rock hound this planets beautiful works of art called crystals, gems and minerals.
