A photo gallery of my August 2012 trip to Battle Mountain, Nevada.
There won’t be a “Bob’s Findings” article this month because I’ve returned to the strewn-field near Battle Mountain, Nevada, where a meteorite fell on the 22nd of August 2012 (UTC). The first find from this fall was found by this author on September 1st 2012 10:50AM (PDT). Since then, there have been many more finds made by a variety of finders. A list of finds can be found here.
This is the time for meteorite-recovery, while the weather holds up, because winter comes early at this elevation and latitude.
Hope you enjoy the images:

When I first posted the above image in January of this year, I said it was an omen and predicted that 2012 would be the year of many bolides!
Hope you enjoyed the images!
There will be much more information about these meteorites from Battle Mountain in the near future.
