X marks the unakite
Ahh, unakite, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
Nay, let me calculate the ways. ...That's why we have algebra. Let x = unakite.
Snowy Lily boots for scale.
Previous X marking the spot post. Previous unakite post. You may also want to check out the recent unakite posts on Looking For Detachment, About.com, and Ron Schott's Geology Home Companion Blog.
Anyone able to tell me where these two unakite "X"s may be found? First one to give the correct answer in the comments wins a "GEOLOGY ROCKS" bumper sticker!

Washington DC :) Ok, I am sure you were looking for something more specific. My guess would be near a monument in Washington DC....am I getting closer???
You're right that it's in Washington, D.C., and your inference that it is somewhere along the route I walked last Sunday is also correct... but I'm going to need more specifics than that if you want to earn a bumper sticker!
Freedom Plaza?
Nope, not Freedom Plaza... that's about five blocks away...
I think they are both at the Museum of Natural History.
I have no idea really...that was as specific as I could get :)
Silver Fox wins! It's the Mall-side stairway leading up to the Natural History Museum. Silver Fox: send me your mailing address if you want your GEOLOGY ROCKS bumper sticker!
Callan, you had me stumped for a while - I kept thinking there had to be two locations, so I was going to guess Art Museum or Smithsonian main bldg w/ Natural History. Glad I stuck to the location I knew! Have sent you a msg w/ FB.
