Hunting the Strathmore strewnfield to its outer limits |
Hambleton district, Yorkshire, England |
Kilburn village, in the shadow of the White Horse |
Meteorite hunting somewhere in Scotland |
Yes, we had permission to hunt through the mud |
Rock piles can be good places to search |
More rocks |
....and more! |
Me in the ruins of a 15th century manor house |
Lots of local stone but nothing interesting |
Molehills aplenty |
Another field to search |
Back where we started |
Driving into the desert |
The Holbrook strewnfield |
Hunting buddy Gregory Wilson & me |
And Holbrook's Dave Andrews |
Railroad tracks split the strewnfield down the middle |
Nice contraction cracks (on an old bit of rubber) |
A typical Holbrook meteorite in-situ |
Far side of the tracks |
Far side again |
Right on the edge of the strewnfield we still made finds |
Me, standing in Nininger's bath tub, clutching a souvenir |
