  • July 7, 2020. Me and Aidan go to the Greenwater area and dig for seam agate. The variety in this spot is excellent. Some of what we find is the same pattern and color as the Tahoma variety.

    I love finding Tahoma agate on the shores of the Sound, all river tumbled to a high gloss. Now I can see where they come from. Thanks for this video.

    Yeah I've dug up there I love the pieces that come out of that area very unique but my God that agate it's tough to cut. I think all I get for Mount Rainier is that tough the Naches side is just as rough

    If you ever get the chance you should go to SW Idaho to Grave Yard Point. I've found some very nice rocks out there! It's best when the ground is dry given the clay content in the soil will build up on your tires and you will most likely get stuck.

      We were there once about 3 years ago before I started making videos and yes it’s an agate lovers paradise for sure. Wonderful that place is.

    Hello! Love watching your videos!! I absolutely love Mt Tahoma!!! I would love to be able to find some! I’ve always just purchased it, but it is always much cooler finding it! Would you be willing where I can find this location in green water? I’m still pretty new but have been up there a few times. Is there a way to chat with you?

    Hey if all i had to do was pluck them . out of the road is that cheating? When you guys have time check out tahoma agate + .7 up hill. I was going to the tahoma spot but decided to go up the hill a little farther. I got out to check this road cut and noticed nodules in the dirt road

    Hey vug meister I love your videos and its amazing the stuff you and your son bring back from your trips! So I've got a question for you though. I've been digging off road cuts on NF-70 for a while now, but I'm curious, did you have to leave NF-70 at all to find this place? I've most just stuck to the road cuts directly on NF-70 and found some pretty decent stuff but I'm wondered if its worth my while to venturing off from the main road for my next trip out there.

      Laurie Owen the larger pieces I just slice and polish one face. Smaller pieces start at 70 grit tumble and that will eliminate the host.

      @@vugmeister918 I went up there last weekend and the road was washed out about 1/2 mile in. It was the jeep trail when you turn off 7220. I went back to the fork and just went up the other road and found some ok looking stuff, but nothing as pretty as what you guys found.
