These were amazing finds! Loved the banding and the colors of blue and green! What an eventful day! (already had this area earmarked on my trip list hehehe)
It looks like Idaho is going to be good to you! That's awesome! Man that place was just covered in agate! You walked by, and picked up next to, some big agates! I'm screaming at the TV! Lol! But you found some really beautiful agates, and everywhere you looked, there was so many more! It was incredible! Woohoo!🎉 Welcome to Idaho! This is going to be exciting! Congrats on the move too! ❤ Thanks!
We drove up there just a few weeks ago from Spanish Fork, but were west of Boise, closer to the Owyhee mountains. It's so crazy the difference in the agate you found vs what we found! My boy and I were expecting water-level banding like Idaho is famous for, yet all of the material we collected was very much a plume pattern agate with great variety in color. And quite a bit of petrified wood that was colorful and agatized as well. Crazy how the geology can change just a few valleys over! Great video, thanks!
@@theruggedrockhound yeah, you picked a good place to live. We’ll miss having you in Utah, but Idaho is pretty excellent! Can’t wait for more adventures 👍🏻 thanks.
Welcome to Idaho! Thought you would be too busy unpacking? Lol...Beautiful chalcedony, Agates, & Jasper finds! Love the crystals as well! Jackpot!... I'm going to have to hit the area next time I'm in Idaho.
I can’t believe how many agates there are in that area. 🤯 That is amazing. What the heck happened? I’ve never seen anybody get so many beautiful rocks in one place. I hope you’re gonna be OK and everything‘s gonna work out and they’re gonna find out what’s wrong and fix it so you can continue your rock hounding. I love your channel. I just found it today. I can’t wait to binge watch all your videos. I certainly hope you feel better because you rock.! 😊
Correct me if I am wrong... but you've hounded in Idaho before. I've seen your dismal swamp video. I saw one decent piece in your video, not really anything close to the quality we like to hunt in the Challis Volcanics but to me the most exciting was the coral you found.
You must me new. Do your kids a favor and keep your spots in a tight circle or one day there won’t be a single spot left to take them. There’s a reason why your able to do what your doing. Keep your spots to your friends and family!
Actually I have been rockhounding for 20 years now. Many rockhounding locations that have been well known and published in books for decades still have plenty of material left. It is true that some places have been heavily overrun over the years, but even those locations still have material (at least where I have been). I believe that this world is meant to be enjoyed by everyone. While it is true some people will make bad choices, most people are good people and I want to help be of service to them.

I really love the way you splice in video of the agates cut while we watch you collect them. Great video!
Thanks!
Very good to see you healthy and happy! Now we get to see what rocks are in Idaho. Georgeous green...and the agates! amazing! God bless you.
Thank you!
You could hear it in your voice how exciting your rock hounding day was! Looking forward to following your journey at exploring New places!!!
Thank you! It also just feels great to be able to rockhound like this again.
We live fairly close, can’t wait to check it out
One of the rocks you looked at(16:27), when it was cut, looked like a scene with a polar bear. My favorite one!
Thanks!

Thank you! Happy to be doing better and happy to be in Idaho. Who knows what adventures await?

I do need to get over there some time and get some of that plume agate. I just love how much variety is out there!

…are you open to sharing GPS coordinates?
Enjoyed, Hoping all keeps going well for you, Thank you for sharing
Thanks!
That place is bonkers! Awesome pieces!
The one at 16:25 looks like a polar bear in the artic. Very kool
It does!

I was, but now that the unpacking is mostly done it is back to rockhounding!

Amazing finds! Looks like I need to take a trip to Idaho. The agates you found reminded me of the ones you found at Hop Creek.
Thanks!
Glad you’re feeling better. We need to get together and hunt. I would learn so much my friend.

Great admin!
Where did you park? The coordinates are not showing anything? Love the videos btw!
I could spend a whole weekend here, and it’s only about 1.5 hours from my house
Aren’t you worried about Rattlesnakes out there?
He was getting too close to a lot of that cholla too. I was cringing every time his fingers got too close
