I'd put my money on them being Garnets, sorry to be different fellas, lol. Though they could be Zircons. Hard to tell MG.
Cool! How much money you got! You'd put your money on garnet, but could be zircon. Oh that reminds me, when's the next poker game!!
 
look like zircon's to me, I have found similar in the snowy region myself, but hay its hard to tell off photo's, nice find though
