This is the kind of geology lesson that makes absolute sense because of this example. Thank you, Elley!

Only have been in Arizona once, 1969 for 2-week vacation. Rented a car for part of the time while there. Got to some of the towns of greater Phoenix, but did not explore further as was alone. While there, explored Hodson's, an upscale lapidary shop with partial petrified wood limbs overtaken with gorgeous opal. Also took a bus trip to the Grand Canyon by way of Sedona. Don't remember the different rock types other than the red sandstone @ Sedona. Had never taken a geology course as it wasn't offered in either high school or the college I attended and I don't recall that the local community college in CT offered one either. At that point, I was more interested in cutting-polishing agates, jaspers, malachite, etc. Geology interest came many years later.

Been to Dragoon, AZ? Try Triangle T Ranch. Rock formations are amazing. I cleared a mile of trails there and you can spend days there exploring. Look for the Hobbit Hole. There is also a literal mountain of quartz there with some exploratory pits for gold mining.
