    So happy to see a brand new video from you Kim, gorgeous finds! I pray you are doing well and healthy again. I'm so afraid that if I were to make it there, I would be dragging two 5 gallon buckets and a backpack full, and still be looking for more, but I would sure try!

    Hi Montana Rock Mom, I have been watching most of your videos so far and all your finds are spectacular. I am from Canada and will be visiting Billings for the first time in May to go rockhounding on the Yellowstone river. I’m travelling alone and I was wondering if you would be interested meeting up and rockhounding together? I’m so excited to rockhound and I hope to find some amazing agates and finds to take back with me. I hope to hear from you and if not rock on. 😊
    All the best, Ranelle

  • @pumpkinhold
    @pumpkinhold Рік тому

    I think I watched another of your videos where you had found a bacculite or two along the Yellowstone (and other videos where you hunted for ammonites) , but it's both amazing and a bit perplexing that the soft iridescent (aragonite?) exterior doesn't get pummeled off tumbling around in the river. It's great you can find these, but the condition of them is way better than I would expect in this environment. Maybe they are working out of the riverbank only a short distance upstream?

    • @MontanaRockMom
      @MontanaRockMom  Рік тому +1

      The baculites and ammonites, as well as other fossils, are usually inside of concretions (septarian nodules) here. The concretions usually erode out of the hillside formations and roll onto the river gravels. When they crack open after falling and you find it relatively quickly after, you can find the shell in pretty nice condition. The Best ones are when you crack open the concretion yourself, seeing the fossil for the 1st time since it settled in the mud and became fossilized millions of years ago.

I haven't been to MT since I was a teen (about 100 years ago!), but you have a great site to hunt, and though I normally don't get too excited about petrified wood, all of the specimens you find are really unique and high-end. Appreciate you sharing all the great videos.
