Information about Ochoco National Forest
Click here for ~ Ochoco National Forest Information
Situated in the heart of Oregon, the Ochoco's 1,500 square miles is a beguiling landscape of vertiginous rimrock, abysmal canyons, geologic oddities, dense pine forests, and high desert terrain. Modern-day explorers and outdoor adventurers can also wander the vast steppe of sagebrush and crooked juniper in the Crooked River National Grassland, also administered by the forest.
The Ochoco is yet another forest that owes its existence to Teddy Roosevelt � it was part of the old Blue Mountain Forest Reserve established back in 1906. The Ochoco eventually emerged as its own independent national forest in 1911. Congress created the Crooked River National Grassland in 1960.

H2L Thundereggs
My Main dig at H2L
H2L Thundereggs is a small deposit we discovered in the Summer of 2004. H2L Thunderegg bed is owned and operated by Hinkle's Rock Shop. The Thundereggs are located High in the Ochoco Mountains North East of Prineville, Oregon. To protect the location and keep the exclusive rights to these Eggs I will not release any more details on where this new deposit is located. |
 
SPECIMEN LISTED 1-20-10
Here's a rare specimen. This is a very small Precious Opal filled Thunderegg from my personal mine. This specimen is one of very few localities in the state of Oregon which produce Precious Opal. This specimen is about 70% Matrix and 30% Opal. This is a SPECIMEN OPAL and needs to be kept in water. These opals are highly unstable and will crack and craze when left to dry out. This is a very flashy/fiery piece.

Desolation Canyon Thundereggs
Looking into the mouth of Desolation Canyon - Twin Pillars in the center.
Desolation Canyon Thundereggs contain a mixture of Thundereggs from 11 different claims a man named Taber Hall once owned. Due to the creation of the Mill Creek Wilderness area, these eggs are no longer open for collecting. Before the Taber Hall collection was purchased by Yellow Dog Rocks, the papers regarding these mines were destroyed by family members, so no one knows any details on which eggs originated from which claims. |
 
SPECIMEN LISTED 1-30-10

| Lucky Strike Mine
The Lucky Strike Mine is located high in the Ochoco Mt's of Central Oregon. This is one of very few pay-to-dig places left in the State. I have to admit that this is one of my favorite place to visit!. Spending time with great people and digging fantastic specimens of Thundereggs make any vacation worth its weight in gold to this area. If you don't have the energy to dig your own material then they usually have plenty of rough piled up nearby the cabin.

I know the owners have plans to really open this mine up to expose some better material and I wish them the best of luck with the venture! |

Whistler Springs
This is an area that is set aside for public collecting free of charge. This claim is held by the Crook County Chamber of Commerce. This area has several area's for collecting, however there is two well known area's.
First is the "upper bed" This is located by the new outhouse and has larger specimens which are in a very hard packed host material. These eggs have agate cores, but many seem to contain thin agate cores.
The Second bed is the "Lower Bed", also known as the Field Area. As you enter the lower area you'll see many holes in the ground. The eggs seem to be in the top couple feet of topsoil.
These are smaller specimens, but usually have nice black agate cores.

Rojo Di Mine
The Rojo Di is a private claim owned by a good friend of mine. The claim is located within a mile or two of Lucky Strike and Valley View Mine's. These eggs look like your typical coarse grained "Ochoco Eggs" such as Lucky Strikes, or Desolation Canyon Eggs, however they tend to have a much wider variety of color in the matrix and agate cores. I have seen a half dozen eggs come from the same area of the mine, but yet you'd guess they came from different mines.
I'm fairly new to cutting and polishing these eggs, but they are moving up quickly on my favorites list!
I'm currently the exclusive dealer for these Thundereggs (besides the owner). My Inventory is limited at times, but I'm working with the owner to continue bringing me quality specimens.

Currently owned by the Mt. Hood Rock Club from Portland, Oregon area. This is also known as the "Old Viewpoint", or "TVGC Claim".
It's changed ownership many times over the years. Permission must be granted to collect here. These eggs have a course grained matrix just like many Ochoco Eggs, the agate cores tend to be clear, to light blue, to carnelian agate centers being the top gem. |
Here's a nice, simple looking Ochoco Agate Bed Specimen. This came from my personal collection. Clear based agate with a hollow pocket and a hint of white opal in the center.

T&T Bed was a re-discovered bed a couple years ago. Eggs here are plentiful, but one must collect many specimens to cut quality collection pieces. To be honest, I'm not a huge fan of the T&T Locality... It's easy digging and eggs pretty much roll out of the ground. But one must cut egg upon egg to find a good one! The majority of these eggs are quartz with a ton of fractures! |
Here's a fairly nice T&T... This one has a triconoid core with quartz and even has a pinkish/red colored outline around the quartz. Not too shabby at all!

Even though you can't collect here, a nice campground is available

Since then, people have discovered our dig and work spread like wildfire about this bed. It is now owned and operated by Hinkle's Rock Shop. Again this Bed produces a dark green matrix, with many types of cores structures. I have seen Agate, Quartz, Zeolites and my most favorite is the Amethyst Cores. |

Richardson's Ranch
Inside one of Richardson's many beds
A very well known locality and good friends of mine, Richardson's Ranch is a pay-to-dig locality that has been open for years. Visit one of many beds on this ranch set-aside for people to prospect - it's worth the time. At this locality you are certain to bring home Thundereggs.
Please understand with all Private Ranches these owners offer collecting on their property for us as a privilege. Too many people now days have no respect for this and feel they can do what-ever they want while visiting these ranches. Behavior such as this is what forces people to close areas and ruin it for everyone. This ranch is one of the last remaining places open for digging on private property and the family has been more than kind to keep it that way.
Richardson's called me to pass along the information that as of 10/28/09 there is NO MORE CAMPING on the ranch property. So be sure to check around the area for future campsites while your digging.

The rough eggs sold quick. I was lucky enough to get a phone call before the public raided the pile. I only brought home a few select specimens and this was one of them. I believe this is one of two or possibly the last one I have left? I can't remember for sure, but the other half of this egg is part of a collection in either Seattle, Washington or in Germany.
