OMG...I'm drooling. I wish I lived closer. So many pieces for my tumbler. It would be non stop for tumbling for years. I need a place like this in Oregon.
Nice finds! I love how that material changed as you moved about. Looks like you got some mossy material too!
I just love the material from Brian Head! That colorful dendritic chalcedony is so beautiful not to mention huge! That stuff is beautiful and yes there are some fractures but some not or not in serious places and for tumbling, it doesn't matter. It's just really beautiful colors and so abundant, you are sure to find something!
Hi Jared and Sarah great video with your dog Lika very cute dog. Great finds you both picked up. Keep up the awesome work
8:30 is rainbow chert, so many colors here. Me likey!😊
Dang, those are massive! Pretty though 🎉🎉🎉
Looking forward to when you get around to building an agate shed like those petrified wood pueblos in Arizona with all these huge Utah agates.
I'm so glad you guys moved to Utah!
Beautiful place.
That pinkish piece that Sara found ~11:50 was really pretty.
Holy cow those are huge
Amazing video!! Thanks for sharing!!
Utah seems full of places to go!
i will say, since i was just there last month, that your camera does a great job of showing pretty realistically what it looks like in person. i know you talked about that a little while ago in regards to different cameras and colors, but now i now personally and it's pretty cool. brian head is such a blast and totally beautiful. i've been polishing some pieces recently and i love the crazy amount of dendrites with the blues/greys the most. thanks for the video, take care
Great content. My wife and I found some great specimens while there in early summer of this year, great colors and big unfractured piece. I have had limited success with tumbling the material, as it does not seem to polish up as well as other agate from nearby, such as agate hill near Panguitch. Lots of material left to play with, hopefully will find the right formula. We have had better luck with the yellow jasper containing pieces.
Just visited here for the first time Saturday. We did the basic hunt everyone does but it was amazing! Already have the tumblers going
Excellent walkabout near Brianhead. Some of that darker material is not dissimilar to the large agates found nearby in Mammoth Creek.
Thanks for putting us on your strong, young legs and showing us the upper reaches of Bryan Head. What a beautiful area. Do you still have the huge chunk of agate you brought back to Spokane from your trip there in 2021? Looking forward to more of your Utah Adventures.
Nice place I wish I were there😊
What type of land is that? Looked like would be excellent summer pasture land for cattle. Anyway, Thx for sharing. Lotsa stuff to choose from is always a good time in my book! Thx again for the post. Much appreciated. Have a great rest of the week!
I'm not really sure what to call it. It's a mixture of grassy areas that they publicly grass sheep on and aspen trees.
It's beautiful and the varied rocks are cool. Just no air for us. Why doesn't Mica have saddlebags to help carry rocks for you. When we had dogs they all loved it. Keep having fun!
A beautiful collecting area, even if the oxygen's a bit thin. On your previous trip three years ago, did you ever look in that gully that is off to the right of where you parked the car? Or is the soil too loose & slippery there?
Thanks for another great video!
Hey Jared! Super random but just watched this documentary on how quarts was used for radios back in WW2, nothing new we all knew it but first time I’ve always seen the process on video and it reminded me of the local spot hansen creek because I believe (at least I’ve always been told) that it was originally found from the US army for using the crystals for their radio development but I’ve had trouble finding any research online to prove that!

great old documentary tho I thought you may find it interesting as well! This video also peaked my interest extra cause I heard recently they are now using quarts again but for AI microchips, quiet fascinating.
Lots of big agate there! 👍 You should bring a water bottle to spray the rocks with instead of carrying them back to water. Makes for good viewing for us as you find them when they are wet.....
So, before you cut open, any of these man made Chalcedony hand tools, knives & cutting blades; see if they have been worked to fit in your hand, please. PLEASE PROTECT OUR ANCIENTS HAND TOOLS, at 6:08, 6:29, 9:00, 9:20 10:20, 10:40 12:15. These are 100,000's of years old & pricless as well as the hardest, enduring cutting tools. Thanks yall are the bestist rock hounds!
