ROCKHOUNDING THE PAYSON ARIZONA AREA
Out
rock-hounding in the Payson area, you will find it has alot to offer. Here is one of my favorite spots to stop, and try to read what our ancestors were trying to tell us. Taking pictures and documenting where this is, is important, as many people like to destroy or steal
these. And the fruits of the prickly pear, are
a tasty treat along the way.
