- In this one, we head out to a site I have not visited yet this year to do some rockhounding! It was a gorgeous late fall afternoon so we decided to take advantage of the amazing weather and head out to do some rock hounding. We hit the jackpot! Amazing find after amazing find! I still cannot believe how many quality agates we found, including a few of which that are unlike any other Montana agate I've seen before! That's not even mentioning the great jaspers and agatized wood we found as well! It was an amazing day for sure, and none too soon as the heavy snow showed up just a few days later. I hope you all enjoy this one, and I will have another one out very soon!

Those blue are gorgeous and the dogs are really cute🥰
Well worth getting your toes frozen. The agate and jasper you found are insane. Love seing the doggies. Hope you get better soon, those cold are nasty this year.
Petualangan mencari batu akik yang menyenangkan, apalagi mendapatkan batu super indah dari berbagai varian baru mantap sobat
Idea for inside cutting. Take plastic drop cloths and hang them to make a contained area for sawing. You could even use glue on velcro to seal and entry point!
Nice agates, can't wait for cutting. Feel better soon. Chicken soup 🍲
Good hunt and video Theo. Very cool!😎😎
I just love that big piece of petrified wood. Please don't cut it up! Hope you feel better.
Love that carnelian! Those giant rocks must be super heavy!
Nice finds. I blame @Theo Kellison for my Iris agate adiction...Thanks for sharing.
I love the green jasper!
Overcast Hounding seems to be favorable. I loved the video, such beautiful finds. Your monster agate of the day looks like a giant molar. Happy Holidays!
Impressive finds with that kind of light.
Can't pick a fave, too many outstanding pieces. You have just the bestest pups, I always look forward to their antics! I hope that you are feeling better Theo!
Maybe it is the lighting that is making certain agates show up better, and that's why your day was so good. Counterintuitive, but worth considering.
Get better soon Theo. That green Jasper was something else, just wow and that mega agate stunning. Stay safe at home until you are really on the mend.
😊 ok I see you are still Theo on here! While watching the pod cast & loved hearing from Jesse I also heard them call you Ronald or Donald…? I must be missing something 😂 love your videos!
This reminds me of my hunt yesterday. We went to one of the only reliable gravel bars on the Mississippi River. Ok definitely not the Yellowstone 😂 but I did find some cool agates! One was so dark I thought it was chert at first until I picked it up and saw light shining through! Anyway… did my best! I was definitely thinking about you yesterday! The Mississippi isn’t the Yellowstone but it’s a similar experience I think there’s stuff from who knows where?! Probably found some stuff from South Dakota originally 🤷🏻♂️ the petrified wood definitely isn’t local! Crazy to find rocks that have traveled hundreds of miles!
Awesome finds. Sorry you were sick. Hope it didn't last long. Love seeing the gang out playing too. I don't think I have just 1 favorite. I wouldn't cut that big piece of pet wood. Man that was gorgeous.
Amazing finds, so much fun being out with the dogs! Thanks
I hope you are better. Your finds are always great….’love watching the pups…they are SO happy to be out with their person.
Score!! Must have had a huge load on your back ..
I know I have had to hide a pile of rock because I couldn't carry it all out, to come back for it later...
Spectacular Finds! You must go there again. Hope you feel better soon.
Awesome finds! Love the agate @9:11, the green and yellow jasper and the agate @14:20, even though all of you finds on this trip are amazing. Hope you guys had a wonderful Thanksgiving!Looking forward to your sale. Thanks for sharing Theo!✌️🤠🤟
Theo, how do you carry so much weight around as you are hunting? Do you have more than one backpack? Do you use a large bucket that you deposit into? Or do you have other bags that you fill, take back to a certain point then go back out with another? Asking because you find some honkin' huge specimens, like that petrified wood piece. You are so lucky to have this area you can hunt around. Down by me in SoCal, the areas are far and few between. But there's a good area called Action, just north of the mountain range that's north of Los Angeles that has given me some great pieces. If you are ever in SoCal, I'd like to go hunting with you.
It's hard to pick a favorite this time. There are so many
Love your channel, but I have a question. You are on a river, so is there a reason why you can't fill the spray bottle from it?
If ive got money i would buy them all😁.and such beautiful finds intodays video💕
What do you do with dark agates?
Wow!
Ringo to ya!
My gosh Theo you found some beautiful rocks
The one you found at 9:37 looked very interesting. That was my favorite one from this find. There were SO MANY!! I would absolutely love to visit a place like that to look because where I live in Indiana there is nothing but corn fields, soy bean fields and flat land. Just a whole lot of nothing and not really anywhere to look for rocks like that at all.
Oh yeah, that green and yellow jasper was absolutely gorgeous!
Was in Montana in Oct. Is there productive agate hunting in the Helena to 3 Rivers area? I usually only have 2 to 3 days to spend (passing thru) and don't know the areas to go. Usually make a pasear to the sapphire mines and take buckets home to work later. I-90 parallels the Yellowstone River, but don't know where to access it (seems to all be private land). Any info appreciated.
I hope You and Yours are All feeling better Brother... Agree, They are All Beautiful...Thank You
Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: The Yellowstone River basin provides such wonderful rockhounding opportunities. I would get spoiled to finding that caliber of specimens of all types...huge colorful jaspers...enchanting large agates...sizable petrified and agatized wood...and on and on! I'm getting spoiled just watching. Thank you for sharing your journeys with us!
Beautiful finds Theo! Love the green Jasper, amazing agates! Can’t wait for slabbing day! I hope you feel better Theo. Hot Chamomile tea with lemon and raw honey, it helps. Rest .
Wow! Absolutely gorgeous finds! Too many beauties to pick just one. My favorite hunt of yours this year. Hope you're feeling better!
Such a great hunt, hard to pick a favourite piece but the last big blue agate is amazing. Hope you feel better real soon.
Your water looks a lot like my favorite stretch of the Snake -- we also see a lot of eagles while wading the islands which pop up after run off etc. I'm loving watching your videos waiting for Spring this year:-)
I'm hoping to hear which type of sprayer you are using, if you don't mind sharing
Nice finds Theo. A friend of mine is headed up to Llano Tx next week to harvest a chunk of Llanite for me. Cool stuff. Hope to make something from it. Happy Hunting
Omg this was truely an awesum hunt , sum spectacular agates & agatized wood. I love how your like a kid in a candy shop when u across piece after piece of stunning rocks, thoze yellow agatized jaspers are amazing but i have to agree with u Theo that green piece of jasper with that little flash of yellow thru it....ohhhhh will be so good to carv.
Wow Theo, quite the haul! and such a beautiful sunset to end the hunt day. I love the music you always add in when showing the rocks, I could listen to that for hours. Can you point me to the source?
OMG that dark green jasper is gorgeous, take care the flu is bad , I’m still fighting after 3 weeks
Beautiful stones, cute doggies and a bright, sunny da--- well, two out of three ain't bad! 🤷 Get well soon Theo!!! 🥰🥰🥰
Hi, I have a question, why do you not just tumble, polish these instead of cutting them??
Hi Theo, I want to know what is the biggest barrel you have for rock tumbling, please?
My favorite is at 14:40, love all that mossy goodness. I hope you all are feeling better. Whew! What a day.
I hope you're all better!! Can't wait to see the inside of that incredible blue, banded beauty!
So many beautiful rocks! But, honestly, the dogs stole my heart❤
