I could care less about the diamonds – ha! Thanks for sharing the tips on the mud so I can plan accordingly.

It is a very great place to work, that protects it’s teen workers with a vengeance I appreciate! Lets you know what kind of folks are running it.

They said it’s not good for wheelchairs when there’s been rain because of the crazy mud, but it’s a little better when the dirt is all dried out (it’s basically a big plowed field). But they also suggested that those w/ wheelchairs can go down one of the small Ranger roads, which would put you next to the field. Also, many people bring in their own buckets, scoop up dirt, and then sift through the dirt while sitting down, which may be the way to go too. They’re great at offering suggestions so if you ever decide to give it a whirl, just call the park first at 870-285-3113. Happy hunting!

(I’ll tell my Dad — but I’m afraid it’ll make him want to go back soon. Ha!) I’d say after 3 times without luck, you’re next hunt is sure to end with a diamond. *crossing my fingers for you*

Teepees sound so cool, I need to check it out! I did see a lot of families there at the Crater having a good time. Just beware of the mud if it’s after a big rain!
