This is a great guide . I have visited 10 of the sites so far . The directions are great - everything is right where they say it will be . I have found some really great rocks thanks to this guide. If you live in Nevada and like rockhounding don't pass this one up.

Excellent book! The directions are easy to follow and you find everything the author says you will. I visited 6 sites so far and am looking forward to visiting all of them.

We went to some locations near Reno, NV. We tried 5 of them and 4 were accurate, 1 site was built on. The way the directions were given were precise and led us to some fabulous finds that locals don't even know. This is a book I would definitely recommand to other rockhounds.
Good book great service May 9, 2010

What a great book!! So much better than I had expected. My daughter and I went to three of your sites, It was exactly as you described. And we found some great samples of petrified wood, actually a tree or limb about 6ft in length, awesome!! Thanks again for all your research and time putting together this volume. Rex

Kappele has a nice feel for including the information a reader wants. I visited the seven McDermitt sites this summer and I felt like I was in good hands. The maps aren't to scale, but they guide you in pretty well. We also used a BLM map and the Delorme Guide (for Oregon) to feel more secure, plus we used GPS quite a bit, so pinpoint GPS readings would help. McDermitt is an overwhelming place to search.
I had less luck at the trilobite locale near Beatty. I got skunked, but I didn't spend enough time there to really give it a proper test.
The cost of the book would be prohibitive with color pictures; this is a low-cost guide book. A few more pictures would be good, tho. I like the writer's tone; he feels friendly and is probably someone who would be fun to go out and collect with.
