Well, those things don't stay put. The longer he waits, the deeper he
might have to dig to get at it.
I can't wait for the thaw myself. I found some granite pegmatite nearby,
and with pegmatite there is always a chance of finding tourmaline,
aquamarine and other great things! But the trail leading to this place
experiences a particularly deep freeze, and the snow is covering up
everything :(
