Rockhounding WA- Back to the river

It's getting close to Rockhounding season so I went to my favorite river to see how high the water level was. I was able to find some jaspers, epidote and quartz, amygdaloidal basalt and a very interesting one which I believe is orbicular rhyolite with agate all over! Definitely a super great find. But the river is still too high and cold for me to hunt just yet... I'll be back.

@@BirddogBonnie oh no you keep that all to yourself. That's a pretty great (and BIG!) find for around here. And it's a pretty hard stone... It'll be hard to break... But I appreciate the gesture! Josh said you had questions about some other rocks you've found... Maybe sometime I could come over and check out what you have and help you ID them! Maybe even check out the creek? I'd love to see what treasures have yet to be found 😄 Haha! Plus, I have another heart shaped stone for you that is naturally shaped I think you'll like. Let me know if that's something you're interested in I would love to get together...even just to talk rocks😉

Thanks for sharing this with us. Be happy, safe, healthy and warm. Now go have some hot chocolate with marshmallows and warm up. 😷⚒🍵

Maybe then find some better ones!!?? There wasn't anything wrong with the ones you found in this video. It had me pausing the video and checking out each one you picked up. I'm thinking I need to go find some so I can feed my tumbler. Care to share the location? No, I don't blame you. It looked quiet and peaceful without trash.

@MarlainaAtkins 2 года назад
Hahaha true! It is deeper than it looks tho... I managed to find a couple shallower spots to check. If it wasn't so cold still it wouldn't have mattered really... I would have been diving in haha! It sure was good to get out tho. I had a fabulous rest of my week too! Saturday I went on a hunt and came back with some spectacular specimens of natrolite and this beautiful greenish chert/agate (🤔 I wonder what to call that? Cheragate😅) material. I can't wait to share it. Thanks for stopping by Shaughn and I hope you have a great rest of your week🤗

that river looks cold reminds me of my days in Wyoming sometimes the creeks there would completely freeze and I could walk over them
@MarlainaAtkins
@MarlainaAtkins 2 года назад
Oh dude it was freezing. Ice cold water from the mountains. Even in summer it's cold but doable. It's actually deeper than it looks too... 3-4ft deep... Not THAT deep really except when it's freezing... I'll wait till it's around 1-2ft... won't be long

Glad you can already get out M! Still buried in snow over here LOL! That odd duck was neat! In my opinion you're probably very close with your silicified rhyolite guess. The green throws me since usually rhyolite wants to weather grey or pink or red, but I don't know any reason it couldn't be green too! Have fun and stay safe out there M! 🐺🐾

Hey G! It's a pretty interesting one. Josh and I have found ones similar before with pinks, browns and even green but this one is the nicest I've found with agate like formation... Super cool. I'm curious to see inside this one. Have a good one bro! I'll talk with ya soon!🐺🐾
