Plasma agate, serpentine, other goodies
BE SURE TO GET YOUR PERMITS IN ADVANCE Go to recreation.gov and search Clear Creek Management Area. Choose the Serpentine ACEC permit per person and the Vechicle permit per each vehicle. YOU NEED BOTH! Don't forget to call the day before you leave and get the gate combination for getting into the main area. Once in the area, cell reception is iffy. We will meet at the turn to the Jade Mill Campground ( MAP) at 9am on Saturday. (The gate is across the main road into the area at this point.) 4x4 isn’t necessary, but a high clearance vehicle would be best. Chuck Borchart will be arriving on Friday and will be camping at the Jade Mill Campground. (The campground has nice vault toilets but no water.) You can also stay at one of the hotels in Coalinga. It is about 45 minutes to 1 hr from Coalinga up to the gate, depending on how fast you drive the curvy road. Come out of Coalinga on Polk St., which becomes Jayne Ave which turns right on S. Derrick Ave. and proceed to Los Gatos Creek Rd (which eventually becomes Coalinga Rd) where you will make a left turn. Travel 30.1 miles and you will come to Clear Creek Rd. and make a right turn across the creek and then follow the road to the right 2.4 miles, all the way up to the gate and the entrance to the Jade Mill Campground on the left.
