Details:

Fire agate is found around Peloncillo mountain according to source.  These are vague instructions, so as always it is your risk to go there.  If you find it please share some details if not some GPS coordinates.

The source says "BOWIE, N past RR tracks, then take Right fork and keep right as you go NE 21 miles toward Peloncillo Mt.

Fire agate."


Directions:
The GPS coordinates are marking a possible location of Peloncillo Mountain as found when I was searching for it on Google earth.

Yea the fork isn’t specified. I’m assuming you go past the tracks at central. But the GPS is 47 miles out
