Finding Clay Materials

For my first location, I chose Craigs Hill which is right near the fairgrounds in Ellensburg, WA. This is where I collected samples 1 & 2.

For my second locations, I chose a spot near mile marker 98 on Highway 10 off of Highway 97 in Thorp, WA. I thought the material looked very maleable and clay-like. This is where I collected sample 5.

For my third location, I chose the volcanic lahar on Highway 10 near mile marker 99 off of Highway 97 in Thorp, WA. I took 3 samples from this location. This is where I collected samples 4, 6 & 7.

I collected sample 3 from a location outside of Ellensburg, but unfortunately it was rocks that I could not grind down enough to work with.
