Oh man I’d have to bring that amethyst home! Amethyst is totally on my bucket list to find. I’m sure that rock was probably about 60 lbs 😂🤷🏻♂️ I’d still have to take it
i’m impressed with your restraint Taylor lol! you and your giant rocks….🤣. good thing you left it behind though, otherwise you probably wouldn’t have seen the find of the day. nice to see no vampire bugs. makes the hunt so much more enjoyable. have a great weekend man!🤘
ive been collecting "cool rocks" since i was a kid but i recently started actually looking for agates and jasper and any other cool rocks. i just found your channel and i love it. im from southern minnesota. we dont get as cool of agates down here as wayyyyyy up there loll
Man, i thought for sure when you said it was amethyst, it had to go home with you! But that was some serious restraint. And the trade off for your "find of the day" was a good trade! a broken back your your wife's eye role, for everything you found after you decided not to take that, was a great trade off! You find of the day was an awesome agate with totally gorgeous bands! And big too! It was a totally great video and thanks so much for taking us along!
I have since wondered if I should take it but I would gladly take my favorite find over that :) and yes, I am pretty sure my wife would have rolled her eyes at me 😂
Impresionantes hallazgos!! Aquí en España,casi todas las piedras son redondas y monocolór,parecen todas hermanas .Gracias por divulgar éstas maravillas.😉
I found and took home a giant piece of copper from there 😁 I still know where you are lol. That’s all my old back yard. Beautiful area you must live close. We’ll have to email sometime. I have a 1.6 pounder and a 2 pounder I found recently near me. I may tell you where 🤪
Great video. Such a beautiful spot. Really like your little bag for your stones, I think I'll do that next time I go out hunting. Pretty finds, that big one was awesome.
@@AgateDad I saw reports that copper could be found there, so that was my main goal. Found a few pieces with Chrysocolla on them and a decent piece of basalt with . I think, is some copper coating. A couple blue-green nuggets and a couple nice formed quartz crystals and one 20 lbs brecciated jasper with quartz laced through it...and it was beautiful walking through there.
Nice finds. I could not have left the amethyst behind like you did. That would of had to come home with me. Don't you worry about ticks when you are doing creek hunts? They are really bad here in Michigan where I live.
I know exactly where you are but your spot is safe with me! It is gorgeous there. I might go see if I can find that big rock for fun, I probably wouldn't carry it out either though. Have you been farther up the river by the small waterfall? Not sure if it's good for rock picking, it's just pretty.
Hmm, looks like either you went back for it or someone else grabbed it. Or I'm just that bad at spotting rocks! My eyes are pretty well trained for seeing shed antlers but I'm terrible with rocks. I just wanted to see it! Never seen anything quite like that.
Glad you found some great things! And its okay to leave boulders in place. Besides, you can't slap mosquitoes when you're carrying a camera in one hand and a boulder in the other.🙃🙂🙃
So beautiful out there over summer I miss the green! We are stuck in a heatwave drought but still here we go out into the desert rockhounding 😂 Cool finds + nice video... that big amethyst chunker 👀 going to be quite a find for the next treasure hunter!
Gotta cultivate that good "agate Karma"! If you don't appreciate the littles, the bigguns won't present themselves to you! Also, do you ever run into any wildlife? Do you carry bear spray/other protection?
You should cut that geode out, not like last time but just cut the host rock around the geode (if you can find a big enough saw) into a cube Edit: never mind, you left it lol
Sometimes if you love it you gotta leave it right? At least the geode will be whole forever now. With your history cutting geodes from host rock, we know what will happen to that poor geode!🤣🤣🤣😜
“Don’t want you guys to get Insecure that I can easily one hand carry this out of here” 😂😂😂
Better safe than sorry 🤣
Good hunt. The scenery was amazing and you found some good agates. I give this video five stars.😎
I give you five stars sir ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks for going out into the beautiful outdoors again!😊
Happy to go and bring you amazing folks along ❤️
Loving the stream hunts....nature is awesome.
Absolutely love all your trips! Can hardly wait for the next one. Thank you so much for creating this channel!
Besides finding great agates your eye for beauty in nature is amazing. Your videos are so creative.
Can't wait to see those beauties 😍 cleaned up. Happy hunting always 🐸💚🐢💚👍🏼
Nice finds Taylor, Keep Safe & Keep Rockin

Soo pretty 😍
Wow 👏 very very very beautiful rocks. Great find. Liked from Jordan
Looks like a chert and Jasper love child

I would be chisel and hammering away at that geode 😆 Thanks for sharing.
Those are some nice finds , really like the fanny pack rock drop !! That adds something special for me 😉
Fanny packs are a good option 🤘 you can also put snacks in there

Nice little walk❤
I would like to see you do a face polish on the red jasper with your cab king.
Not a bad idea 😁
Great job on the river bank hunt. I love the scenery as well. Rock on my friend.
Nice day out, thank for sharing you adventure.
Beautiful spot. I wish i was there. Another great and amazing find. You lucky dog!!! Thats crazy! Thanks for sharing!♥️😘
Thanks for joining 🤘🤘
Yayyyyy! Agate Dad Friday! As always, LOVE your videos, kiddo!
😊 have a good weekend ❤️
Host amethyst rock was very pretty.
Impresionantes hallazgos!! Aquí en España,casi todas las piedras son redondas y monocolór,parecen todas hermanas .Gracias por divulgar éstas maravillas.😉
Bestest trips🥰
Really interesting. I have collected local rocks for my aquarium and have found some interesting ones but I'm not as knowledgeable as you.
Maaan, i die inside...u left that cool galaxy stone??!! Wwhaaa? Aaaahhhhh!!!!! Im dying inside 😩
😂 so sorry!
Just found your channel, great content man! At the two minute and 20 second mark, I think most of those are some sort of mineral replace fossils.
Welcome you learn about rocks fun....
I found and took home a giant piece of copper from there 😁 I still know where you are lol. That’s all my old back yard. Beautiful area you must live close. We’ll have to email sometime. I have a 1.6 pounder and a 2 pounder I found recently near me. I may tell you where 🤪
That's heaven to me😌 I would be checking alllll the rocks there🤭
Nice spot. Looks like the river is settling down from a recent storm. That first one is a nice Mottle.
Hahaha I got you good lol love it man I hate it when other rocks look like something it not darn it
Happens a lot, gotta look because it may be something but 99% of the time it’s nothing 🤣
Great video.
Such a beautiful spot.
Really like your little bag for your stones, I think I'll do that next time I go out hunting.
Pretty finds, that big one was awesome.
It’s a nice option 🤘🤘 good ol Fanny pack
@@AgateDad I'm definitely getting one.
Over here in NZ, we call it a bum bag 🤣
Your videos are so cool
Big fan of geology
Great channel
Thanks!
AGATE DAYS - Moose lake MN, July 16th and 17th , gem and mineral show
Love it man!! So pretty up there!! Stunning simply Stunning!!
It’s the best ❤️
@@AgateDad agreed 💯
I think I need to move to Minnesota
Good idea ❤️🤘🤘
Very good then
Was just at this river yesterday.
How’d it go?

The big Rock with the amethyst geode was a leaverite.... 😆 🤣 😂
Unfortunately 😂
Nice finds. I could not have left the amethyst behind like you did. That would of had to come home with me. Don't you worry about ticks when you are doing creek hunts? They are really bad here in Michigan where I live.
I would worry about them if I found any, luckily I didn’t get any!
Definitely. They must not be bad there like they are here. Just glad you don't have a problem with them.
I know exactly where you are but your spot is safe with me! It is gorgeous there. I might go see if I can find that big rock for fun, I probably wouldn't carry it out either though. Have you been farther up the river by the small waterfall? Not sure if it's good for rock picking, it's just pretty.

Can the amethyst be used to make jewelry? And, do you ever bring a chisel and hammer to harvest around the cool stuff?
I would but it has to be over the moon spectacular for me to try to rip it from its host
There was a rock at 5:16 with some color in it.
Under the rock you flipped over.
Glad you found some great things! And its okay to leave boulders in place. Besides, you can't slap mosquitoes when you're carrying a camera in one hand and a boulder in the other.🙃🙂🙃
Luckily I didn’t get bit once! Such a good day ❤️
New sub ! Liked 🙏😃🌙😀😃
🙏❤️
Once again, nice finds! Do you ever have days when you go out and find nothing of any consequence?
Ohhh yes 😅 the last few times I’ve gone out I’ve been skunked, hence, no rockhounding videos in the last few weeks.
Oh No you left my favorite 😢😅
You should try crystal hunting....Amethyst in South Carolina....How far is that from you 🤔....Have a blessed weekend 🙏
👍👍
What river is that , if you’re willing to share
I was wondering, and hope it's okay to ask, but do you sell some of the rocks you find? I apologize if this is an inappropriate question.
Why don't you have a chisel set? The host rock with the small agate in it could have had much more. Come on man! Have a good weekend...
I do lol
So beautiful out there over summer I miss the green! We are stuck in a heatwave drought but still here we go out into the desert rockhounding 😂
Cool finds + nice video... that big amethyst chunker 👀 going to be quite a find for the next treasure hunter!
Is there any place to actually go mining for rocks and crystals? I really want to start getting into that but I don’t want to just go rock picking.
Gotta cultivate that good "agate Karma"! If you don't appreciate the littles, the bigguns won't present themselves to you!
Also, do you ever run into any wildlife? Do you carry bear spray/other protection?
How difficult would it be to bring a hammer and a chisel and try to chip it down so you can get just the geode
What rock pouch are you using?
What do you think the best method for cleaning limonite stains?
In my opinion, best way to clean it is to not 🤣 its so beautiful!
Nooo it’s probably huge geode inside!
You should cut that geode out, not like last time but just cut the host rock around the geode (if you can find a big enough saw) into a cube
Edit: never mind, you left it lol
😂
Sometimes if you love it you gotta leave it right? At least the geode will be whole forever now. With your history cutting geodes from host rock, we know what will happen to that poor geode!🤣🤣🤣😜
😂 my thoughts exactly
Why do you call them Egets? Lol
