I found the mine on the maps through this site. Can you just go there and dig around the tailings?

Some very nice (albeit small) wulfenites have come from this locality as evidenced by the Mindat page for Finch Mine. I have also heard of small vanadinite crystals from this locality as well.
And as a side note: watch out for the "barking spiders" that occasionally show up; I hear they can be pretty obnoxious to deal with..... ;-)

While I was at his shop I did get a specimen from Finch mine. It is not the stuff that has that chalcedony all over it like a sugar coating but it is nice and my first piece of Wulfenite from the state I was raised in so I like it that much better. I also asked him if he had any kind of specimen from the Verde Valley - I grew up in Cottonwood AZ near Sedona - and he had some Glauberite from the Camp Verde area. So that was cool. I had never heard of Glauberite but now I have some.
Epic country out there and the mining presence is fairly awesome. If you have not been to this part of the country I suggest the trip. You will not be disappointed...
