      If you are looking for agates, you will have more luck east of Billings - but I’m sure there are treasure to be found anywhere on the Yellowstone!

    Hey nice finds. I'm a rock hound at heart as well. Couple of years ago I was down in southern Iowa. I was looking for cool rocks in a creek bed. When climbing out of one creek .. Sticking out about 6" embedded in the mud I pull out a 21" piece of petrified wood. Weight 25lbs. It's my most prized possession.

    You don't realize' a lot of what your picking up are actually artifacts'.. you have designs' angles' rounds' agatized wood that has been cut/ chopped'
