Find collecting sites, know where it's legal to dig, and keep a private log of every find, all in one app. DISCOVER THOUSANDS OF SPOTS Browse a curated map of rockhounding sites across the country. Tap any pin to see what's been found there, how to get there, and what conditions to expect. KNOW WHERE YOU CAN LEGALLY COLLECT Toggle land overlays for BLM, National Forest, and National Parks to instantly see which areas allow casual collecting and which don't. Avoid trespassing on private land or restricted parcels before you ever leave the truck. DETAILED SITE INFORMATION Every spot includes: • What rocks, minerals, and fossils have been found • Land agency and access rules • GPS coordinates and directions • Weather and trip-planning info • Notes from other rockhounds PLAN YOUR TRIP Check the weather at any site before you drive out.

YOUR PERSONAL FIND LOG Save spots you've visited, mark favorites, and keep a private log of your finds. Your saved spots stay on your device. Your secret locations are yours alone. DRAW YOUR OWN ROUTES Draw lines on the map to mark trails you've walked, ground you've covered, or routes you want to come back to. Color-code them and save them privately.
