please be aware scammers are using my logo and replying in the comments. I would never have you call text or what's app, or ask for money or personal information. please don't be fooled . this is a common scam occurring to many channels. take care all and thanks for the support : ) the scam has been reported.
Great. Now I don't know if that was you referring your email to me or a scammer. Or if it was you that replied to my comments. Now we're in a pickle jar . Ok. What river did you say you get some good red Jasper? We will see if this works heehee
Nate, since you are practically rock hounding in my backyard, I feel I can ask this...... "Are you crazy?" haha..... It is soo dang hot here. But seriously, stay hydrated, and do watch out for the rattlers..... there sure seem to be a lot of them around this year.
For sure, not exaggerating, I found 7 or 8 this year, all by stumbling onto, but must say, they all could have bit me and didn't, been too long away from the area, had to go see how it looked, better, too hot, but better for sure. Stay in the shade my friend!
Lol friend of mine said, 'its Oroville, it'd be the Loch Meth monster.' I smacked him and told him to go back to chico. 🤣🤣🤣
Great haul! A lot of really clear beautiful quartz! Very nice 👍
thank you !
I was born and raised there. I miss those Black Buttes and rice fields as well as that beautiful lake. Thanks for taking me back home. I have no idea how you dodged a rattle snake. Great haul!!
I just make sure not to step on them, and they are pretty mellow, plus water is so low they must be hunkered a thousand feet below me with the other critters, it was so dry.... but recovering, baby pines , and others pushing up through it all, the brush already reborn from the roots and head high, the oaks revealing many will recover as they all looked so bad at first and not ,just all around better, need a slow steady rain out there and some good snow 🤞
Too cool, so fortunate to have an abundance of so many different rocks to hound. When you said you saw rainbows I thought yep his brain is fried. But then I saw them too so.. Thanks for the journey. ✌️❤️
Dang thats a hot day even for an Aussie!!!!! Awesome finds!!!! I think you may need a bigger hat in that heat, thats egg frying temps!!! Thanks for sharing
He must be off his rocker 😁
This is hilarious.. i live near Oroville and i want more rockhounding spots, and you are exactly where i dig.... i never go in the heat... early morn at this spot in the summer. the water was much closer last time i was there, the hike down was really full of fallen trees
i want to paddle in...
Some prize points and a lot of other clear and shiny treasures!
Being someone that understands 110-115 weather, I hope that short breaks with lots of hydration is a priority as we need our Quest for Details Master to be around for awhile. Your bounty gathered are stunning Nate... Quest On!
for sure, I do not want any one to take it lightly either and go and get hurt. I am pretty conditioned to it as the temperatures and terrain I live in are similar and have done outdoor trades this whole time, so every 8 hour day has been a survival quest for sure . I totally appreciate the concern and always want every one to stay safe. a day in the heat hunting treasure beats any day in the heat at work : )
Most amazing quartz crystals!
I used to live in Oroville Ca. There is a place up in Magalia that's blm along butte creek that's great for rockhounding and gold in the creek. Maybe you can go there some day.
Forks of the buttes SRA
Glad you are outside of the Park where it is Legal to pick up anything. It's known for Chlorite phantoms too. Lot of crystals also over by Concow in the poison oak roots....
Sounds like you're a local too.
Sounds like quite a few of us; we should start meeting up now and then...
@@jeffreyallen3796 Was. Now I mine opal. The owner of the Kokopelli Opal mine runs A-1 Auto in Chico. His place by Cherokee was burnt over in the Paradise fire.
Hey I'm local too! Been trying to get into rockhounding but Im hesitant to go out alone 😅
@@sedonachapman Joint the EDIT: Chico club. Ive done that show before but the miles are too much now. Phoenix or Quartzsite Club, they have a lot of members in AZ.
next time, climb up out at that manznita, there are better trails that way... i hate walking on that rocky slope
Etching. The word you were looking for. It's one of my favorite things about crystals. It kills me when someone buffs them out.
Thank you! Just taught me something new!
Not to date myself here but... you are one WILD and CRAZY guy!
Very nice, I know that view or similar from driving up 70 to go to my parents house in Greenville. Beautiful country my friend, too bad it was so hot. You have a calming voice. Thanks for sharing.
I wish I could show you the rocks I found and get your opinions but I love learning and watching on your channel !
Beautiful treasure 😀💕💗💖
I am glad you didn’t get heat stroke! Boy, the clarity of the Chrystal’s is amazing. I liked the big pieces…I would probably want to take more Than I could carry. I hope your move went well.
Lol , I Like Regardless ...
I would love to go hounding with you looks awesome !!
Im sure glad you are ok. That is a dangerous location, as well as what that heat is doing to you while you are out in a dangerous location like that while you are dehydrating yourself and cooking your brain! But that out of the way, Wow! That huge boulder that is covered, or is a huge boulder of quartz crystals! Gorgeous! Those are some amazing finds! That whole lot of your finds are amazing. That amount of crystals with points is amazing! That was an amazing hunt but lets not go back until it cools off a bit. Ok? Triple digits and alone is not safe, and if something happened to you, especially in this heat, by the time help could get to you, you would be fried! And that would be more than anyone could handle! You finds are amazing but not worth your life or just you! Thanks for sharing and letting me be a mom! lol!
thank you for the caring words, I do my best to stay alive I promise, every intention each time of weighing the risks and choosing with awareness. I work with heavy and sharp in heat and steep in the far out and alone, for my daily pay, I have been a grunt my whole life so at least I am made for this. the days I spend in these places , that are risky, I feel like i'm right where I should be , doing what I should be , and feel pretty safe in at least being on the right path wherever it leads, and that is all I can ask for , another day, the view, each such a gift and a blessing. and we will wait for the cool, for sure : ) thank you !
@@QuestForDetails Thank you! I do feel better about it.
Do me a favor when you go back in the fall. Take your pin pointer with you to see if there is any gold in any of the larger quartz nodules.
i live just north of here Los Molinos i’m addicted to quartz & always wanted to go hunt them down but i have no idea where i can find them. would be a good field trip for me & my son.
Thank you for sharing! You did an amazing job navigating the terrain and in the heat. I live 35 miles from Lake Oroville. I have not rock hunted there. I have gone on up into the feather river canyon and found some amazing things. I also had my first encounter with a timber rattler. Lol.... Again, I appreciate the rock hounding videos and will continue to watch all of your adventures.
Stay hydrated my friend
My neck of the woods! Wish youd have given us a heads up!
⭐⭐💎⭐💎👓
Welcome to my neighborhood 😊
Thank you! I love the historical videos you are doing about the area on your channel, very cool !
Learning a lot, thank you ! : )
@@QuestForDetails awe thanks 🙏
every one please be safe = know what you'r doing, know the risks, weigh those risks to the experiences and its worth, make sure you'r the one choosing and that your aware you are choosing ,take the measures to keep yourself safe from the risks , and try to make sure the view is worth it.
Very nice
Thanks
O MY GOD!!! THIS IS EXACTLY WHERE I MINE!!!!
That is right up the road from my Sister's old house
👍
Dear Nate, ARE YOU OK??? 😂
WHY would you do this to yourself? You cray! But yes, I did like it 👍
First!!!
ive been crystal hunting around here more than 6 times and ive had no luck at all, do you have any advice?
Graded roads turn up new stuff every year and look for clear chips as the points are usually all picked up if its getting traffic. Run off creeks & rivulets in tailings in mining districts; Sawmill Peak area? Watch for diamonds as De Beers had a few claims up there in the sepentonite. Do some reading. granted research is one of my strong points. Eckert's The Southwestern Quadrant (there were 4) It can be its vuggy rock thats stained rusty colors compared to the greener gneiss whatever. As always talk to club members, join or not.
Bonus fact. My ex found her best piece of Pulga Jade in the ditch from the gravel from the end of the dam south end parking on the WALKING PATH upriver. I mean its got white crust if its not broken but if its broken & most pulga is, its green and clearish with spots black or white
Can u say fr sure that some of those crystals aren't goshenite or "Fancy" corundum?
I am handicapped and want to look for crystals. I moved to Oroville back in March. I'm dying from the heat and won't leave my house past 9am until its fall perhaps. Ha ha . Anyhow, could you recommend anywhere for me to drive and walk a safe distance from my car to find crystals?
Nate .. of all the people, You know better! At 112 degrees, it is not advisable to even walk ! People are told to S tay indoors and hydrate since being in just 100 degrees, a healthy individual can deplete all of thekr electrolytes in less than 20 minutes during light exercise....aka walking into a shady area. At that point the body begins to shut down..the pores no longer release Sweat and heat exhaustion abd heat stroke will occur witbin the hour. I would be mad if you just made a choice from stupidity...but youre not stupid yiu are addicted to sharing your knowledge! Thats why i care enough to lecture you ...and perhaps save us from losing yiu altogether....😢
I appreciate the concern but I do landscaping and I do it in the mountains of California where without exaggeration its usually no less than 90° each day on the best days, and often right around 100° and I have to do eight hours of that many days a week and I have for a long time so I'm probably more conditioned than some people. all of the factors which you were talking about are definitely safety parameters that one should advise and maybe I should take time in future videos to pass those on because I do constantly see reports of people going out beyond their ability, and it resulting in really bad consequences. And I'm definitely not just being macho, but I am part of that outside labor workforce for the last 25 years doing heavy construction and landscaping which requires you to be able to function in that heat all day long doing heavy manual tasks .and the area where I live in is very hot and arid so just in the last month I have probably spent 8 days at 100° working eight hours in full sun. the human body is an amazing thing when its trained and conditioned to something it can do incredible things. a day playing with crystals is better than a day digging ditches or hauling brush uphill. again, thank you for concern, and promise im not being macho, thats deadly out in the elements.
