I'm new to this forum and was wondering if anyone could give me some information. Are there any pay to dig sites closer to Tucson Az. Any in west Tx? It looks like the ones on the web are around Austin and that's a thousand mile drive for me. Thanks for any info you guys and gals can give me.

Thank you, AL

if there was any good ones in west texas, i would of allready sniffed it out, beings i live in midland,your best bet is to bite the bullet and screen dig at nachos,or maybe palmers.good luck in your quest. adios.

agree. as of right now.

Thanks Cliff, I'll keep looking. I may have to drive the miles. So you are saying I should screen dig at Nachos. Have you been there and were you happy with the experience?

Thanks, AL

Al, a big factor in your dig quest is that central Tx offers the best conditions for midden camps that yield
a huge variety of point types, in quantity.
Such camps in more desert environments [ like W TX ] just dont exist.

We have heard of other out of state dig visitors that usually try to combine some other points of interest
to make the most of the time on the road.

Like a flint show. [ the largest flint show in the world is in June, in Temple TX ]

PS;
Once a year I make the trek to Tucson AZ just for the February Gem and mineral show festivities. Via Amtrack.

Thanks one and all. I will figure on the drive to Central Tx.
This is a great site, I will open it often.
