i wanted to do the similar - take home some clay - from my trip thru
wyoming a few years back. a beautiful state. except no where did i
see a spot that wouldn't be disrupted by my removal of some local dirt.
so i didn't take any home...

that state has so much clay color that i would love to move there!

as a last resort i bought a knife that had various colors of wood
laminated togethere to aproximate the local clay strata to me.

put the state on your list if you've never been there!

see ya

Agree. The northwest is one of the most spectacular parts of this country.
Glacier National Park is one of the most amazing sites I have ever seen. In
the 70's I traveled across country going from one national park to the
next - Glacier is one that I can still see with my minds eye - a river of
clear intensely turquoise water over red rock - a lot of copper do you
think?
