Location Type: Public Access
Details: Hopefully these directions aren't too vague, or at least hopefully the place is scenic enough to feel worth it if you don't find it.  Here is what the source says: "E 14 mi. on Rte. 260 to Diamond Point, turn N 4
mi. toward lookout, go another 8 mi. NW to area about 1
mi. from river, abundant: agate, jasper and crystal lined geodes"

Directions: I wish the directions above had road names, good luck!

Pleease leave gps coordinates typed out for others. You’re driving instructions are very vague and not detailed at all. Thanks for wasting 4 hours of my day due to bad directions.
