GlASS BUTTE, OREGON~~Obsidian Paradise For Rockhounders

Five years ago we visited Glass Butte, Oregon and rock picked, chiseld, and dug in trenches for the most wonderful obsidian rock. The big stuff you have to work for. The smaller ones are all over the ground. On Sunday we went back to Glass Butte and dug for more obsidian. We were more selective this time as we are limited weight-wise towing the 5th wheel. This place is a rockhounders dream. Various colored obsidian is found in this area - black, black lace, lizard, pumpkin, green sheen, silver sheen, gold sheen and red and black.
