Join us for a day trip to the annual Sierra County Rock and Gem Society (SCRAGS) Rock &amp; Gem Show, a favorite regional event for mineral enthusiasts, collectors, and curious newcomers alike. Participants will have time to explore the rock and gem show floor, featuring mineral and fossil specimens, lapidary arts, educational displays, door prizes, and opportunities to engage directly with collectors and experts. For those interested, optional field trips are available through SCRAGS, including visits to the Palm Park barite and fluorite site and the “candy” rhyolite site near Hatch. These field trips are primarily vehicle-based with little to no hiking and are scheduled to depart around 10:00 AM. Field trip participation is optional, and details are provided directly by the rock show organizers. 

In addition to the show and field trips, participants may choose to explore the town of Truth or Consequences, known for its historic mineral hot springs, local dining, and relaxed desert charm. This trip offers flexibility, allowing participants to tailor their experience based on interest and energy level. Note: we will depart promptly at 8:00 AM to ensure arrival in time for scheduled field trips and show activities. Entry is free.

Distance: Minimal walking; mostly indoor and vehicle-based
Duration: ~6 hours total (including travel)
