    @Starkweather1999 6 месяцев назад

    Any of you interested, check out the Platte Rivers. I'm in northwest Missouri and I find chalcedony, honey agate, agatized and petrified wood, many colors of chert, Smoky quartz, lake superior agate, moss agate, druzy fossiliferous limestone as well as culture stones, stone age flint knappings, coprolites, ironstone nodules, mammoth, bison, horse and cattle bones, feldspar and even occasionally amber. Follow those sandbars. Great video.

    Hey just thought I’d mention this most of the waxy looking rocks that you find that your not quite sure about most likely are chert or Jasper and they do mix. Quartz can also look similar when weathered but usually you can tell if that is present in the rock. 👍🏻

  • @davidl.howser9707
    @davidl.howser9707 11 месяцев назад

    Maybe plan a trip to walk along the sun drenched white sandy shore of the South Chesapeake Bay's West Coast line in "Flag Ponds Nature Park" 1525 Flag Ponds Pkwy, Lusby, MD 20657, which is located in Lusby, Maryland. When there you can casually be picking up the pink to orange translucent to opaque agates found there I often think of the planet Mars when looking at the colors of the agates mixed in with the white beach sands holding so many Patuxent River stones which is Maryland's State gem (a form of agate). Also much successful fossil hunting is found just a short drive to the South at the Calvert Cliffs Maryland State Park. A long, long, long walk along a manicured path that is a demanding trek through the woods to find the shore line. Bug spray, Sun Block, Water, Snacks, pull over rubber water shoes are good to have along on your day adventure. Avoid two things: one being the eroding earthen cliffs falling on you, and two don't wander south into the grounds of the Nuclear Power plant there, the security there frowns on trespassers for some reason. L.O.L..

Before then we came up to camp on some land my grandpa owned so as you can imagine I did a lot of rock hounding and exploring up there. New sub. Thanks for sharing!

    Thanks for another great video! We were up on the North Shore the 1st few days of October & found a new place to explore on a river near Two Harbors. The short hike was beautiful & we found steps down to an area looking a lot like this video. I found some cool rocks (of course) & some of the ugliest glowing agates 🤣. Small windows of beautiful bands, but mostly gnarly looking stuff that's hard to get clean. Haha! I was in heaven up there! Wish I'd been more prepared for being on a river - can't wait to see you do a video of this river with the view tube/bucket!!!
