Thanks so much for watching and leaving this comment. Yes, Jared did “correct” me in that earlier video, for which I am genuinely appreciative. He took the time to leave a comment that helped steer me in a better direction. I hold Jared in very high esteem and take his thoughts and comments seriously. I was so happy to be able to do this video with him. He’s delightful and a wealth of knowledge. Thanks again for watching and commenting!

We will find out for sure when Jared publishes his video on Sept 5th. 😎. I’m going with Olivine for now.

Absolutely! Send me an email and I will respond with coordinates. 😎Lancesnarr@gmail.com

@@adventuresofshadowdog Thank you so very much!

@@adventuresofshadowdog I just sent you a message 🙏♥️

Yes I do! Send me an email and we can chat further. Lancesnarr@gmail.com. 😎

Yes I do. Feel free to shoot me an email: Lancesnarr@gmail.com

Hi John! Great question. I tumble and polish a lot of the samples. Somehow they end up in the pockets of visiting friends and family members, which makes me happy. I also display the larger, more unique pieces within my home here and there. And the big rocks are displayed or incorporated into the landscape around the house. I also give a lot of rocks away to others who want to tumble them, etc. Have you explored tumbling? It’s a fun hobby. I watched a RUclips video a year ago or so made by a British fellow who gathered rocks on the beaches and tumbled them. I don’t recall where exactly the beach was, but the rock tumbled and polished beautifully. Thanks for watching. Love your channel! Cheers!

@@adventuresofshadowdog I have never done tumbling. You are right about our beaches in the UK. Many are covered in pebbles rather than sand, which make ideal candidates for tumbling.

Thanks Bryan! Really appreciate you for watching and commenting. 😎

Thanks Michelle!

Thanks so much, Kyle! Jared’s channel is my choice of channels to learn from. He’s a great teacher and really does a good job covering topics. And he’s got a great sense of humour. There are other good channels too, but my personal favorite is Jared’s. So your comment is a real honor to me as I consider myself way down the ladder from Jared. Like, way down! I do have one thing Jared doesn’t have: Shadow! Lol. Shadow is the real star!⭐️. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!

@@adventuresofshadowdog Lance, I’m a full time writer/editor (background in faith-based publishing), and as a night owl, I sometimes don’t knock off until 10pm or so. I then chill out with various shows or rockhounding videos. You have a great eye for the camera and always capture a location in all its beauty. Also appreciate your thoughtful and engaging style. Shadow is a big plus too! Keep up the great work, as it brings great information and inspiration to many!

There are plenty of rocks and rockhounding locations for everyone.

Hi Joe! Send me an email and I’ll follow up with coordinates. Lancesnarr@gmail.com Thanks!

What mic are you using?

It really was a very special day. I live in St. George, UT. The site we were at is just about a 30 minute drive North. On the day we shot this video, I was shooting with a new DJI Osmo 4 and DJI mic that comes with it. I’ve since shot another video with it and had the mic properly paired and I’m super happy with both so far. Previously I was using a GoPro Hero 10 which I also liked a lot. But the new DJI Osmo 4 has a much bigger sensor and is far better in low light. I shoot a lot in low light as I do astrophotography too. The GoPro, which is super in so many ways, is not good in low light. I think I’m rambling beyond your original question, but I hope this helps. Do you ever get this way?

That is super helpful! I am definitely getting OnX Maps. Thanks so very much for the tip. And thanks for watching!

Thanks Dave! Love your new camper build @endgamecampers. It’s coming along really nice! 😊

Hey Ed! That’s awesome that you went out with the club and also met Jared and Sarah. I wanted to go today but I fly out to NYC early tomorrow for four days of meetings and I had to work today to prepare. Would much rather be out rockhounding! Lol. Thanks so much for watching and leaving a comment. Let’s get together soon!

Thanks!

Hi Jan! I too am anxious to see what Jared finds out and shows in his video. Thanks for watching!

Brilliant! Lol

Thank you Patrick!

You are always welcome if you find yourself in Southern Utah. 😎

Thanks. If you would ever like to rockhound that location just send me email for the coordinates. Lancesnarr@gmail.com. 😎

Hey @jeytex3161! I have the claim properly filed now and am giving coordinated to interested rockhounds. I’m trying to recall if you sent me an email already. If so, please forgive and send again. If not, please email me and I’ll reply with coordinates. Lancesnarr@gmail.com. 😎

Hey Jerry. Send me an email and I’ll send you coordinates. Lancesnarr@gmail.com. 😎

This is a new find of chalcedony, or agate, formed in the seams of lava rock. Location is in Southwestern Utah.

Shadow loves playing with bigger dogs. He has so much energy that the smaller dogs shy away from him. He plays great with bigger dogs of all breeds, as long as they too are playful, which they usually are. Thanks for watching and commenting! Give your GSD a scratch behind the ears for me. 😎

Reed, I always enjoyed watching Jared because he is such the real thing. I admittedly do not have his level of knowledge, but that’s okay! And we all start at the beginning and frankly there is no end. So I hope what knowledge I do have, I can share in a way that doesn’t sound all high and mighty, and I love to learn from others. I like to say “Rockhounding is a team sport!” So glad you’re part of the team! Thanks for watching and commenting and keep coming along with us. We can all learn together.

Oh boy now I’m blushing. Lol! Thank you!!! 😎

Feel free to send me an email and I’ll send you the coordinates. Lancesnarr@gmail.com. Thanks!

Hey Charles! Shoot me an email so I can follow up with you. Thanks!!! Lancesnarr@gmail.com

@@adventuresofshadowdog done, sometimes my server gets blocked so let me know if you don’t get it.

Thanks so much Eric!

I am too! Jared is even more wonderful in person than he comes across on RUclips. And Sarah is just like she is on RUclips, delightful. Shadow wanted to get in their car at the end of the day! lol

That’s something to think about! I had to read your comment three times and then I was able to imagine what you are describing. Once I could see it in my mind, it makes perfect sense. Have you encountered this shaped agate or other rock formation before? Thanks for the excellent comment!

@@adventuresofshadowdog no, but my university studies included crystal and molecular structures. The tightest packing of crystal structure is called , “hexagonal close packed”. This packing should result in a roughly triangular shape. One of the specimens you showed looked like it had a curved surface, rather than a flat surface. Btw: sorry if my explanation wasn’t clearer.

That is super interesting. Your explanation was crystal clear! My slow mind took a while to wrap itself around it. lol. I’ll check my emails later today and respond.

@@adventuresofshadowdog I’m back out at Bryce Canyon NP. I don’t have my computer so I probably won’t check email until I return home in 10 days or so, lol. But, there is other contact info in the email I sent.

You are always welcome there. You lease send me an email and I’ll send you the coordinates. Lancesnarr@gmail.com

Hi! I’d love the coordinates to the claim. I promise to be respectful.

Rockhounding is a team sport. The more the merrier! 😎

@@charleslupica Me too-my two favorites on screen together… the Rockhounding equivalent of Captain America and Super Man teaming up.

Beth, it really is a beautiful spot on planet earth. I just love to go there. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!

Love the scenery, reminds me of the Nev/Utah border. Did it turn out to be agate, chalcedony or somethingaltogetherdifferent?

Definitely chalcedony and in the agate category. Jared’s video is posting Sept 5 and we will all learn more then.

Awww . . . thanks! We had a great time. Thanks for watching!

It was truly a wonderful day in every way. Not too hot. Slightly overcast. Good agate and other finds. And great friends! It doesn’t get any better than that! Thanks for watching!

Agreed!

You are so right! And that plays out in all the fields of science and research.

I actually think that’s a good fit!

Thanks Evan!

Thank you!

The pleasure was all mine! And I can’t wait to see your video from this trip and see what you and Sarah uncovered. The suspense is killing me! 🤠

Thanks! This was a really fun trip. I’ve “hero” worshipped Jared for years. I hope we can do some more trips together in the future. Take care!

I’m not sure exactly where you live, but if this is close to your neighborhood, you live in a beautiful area! Thanks for watching and commenting.😎

@@adventuresofshadowdog I live in St. George, by exit 2.

@@dianekanady2522 I also live in St. George

@adventuresofshadowdog why did I think you lived in Arizona? Well, hello neighbor!

Hello! Lol

Agreed!

Thanks Andrea! I do love the secret room! Lol

Thanks Charles. Identifying rocks is really hard sometimes. And sometimes they are a bunch of different things making it a real puzzle. I do my best but admittedly I don’t get it right all the time. But sometimes we do! Lol
