I bought this book together with Colorado Rockhounding by Voynick. Together, they offer a lot of information about sites to collect in Colorado. Kappele's book is thinner, but still gives info on 96 sites. Gives a basic map of the area, land type, elevation, season to go, material to be found, what tools to bring, whether you need 4WD, area hotels, attractions, and details on finding the site. Has black and white photos of the specimens found and landscapes. The intro talks about safety, tips, weather, mines, private property, and monuments. Overall pretty good. Would recommend Voynick's book with it for a more rounded understanding of the state and mineral belt areas.
good

A little dated. Some of the spots open to the public are no longer in operation so be sure to plan and call ahead. Overall, it is a good guide to have.
