Hey man, I really enjoyed your video. I just wanted to ask you, we tried to follow your coordinates and they didn’t seem to take us to the right place. It was a huge river crossing that was too deep for even my Toyota Tacoma, and then we went to the Graveyard Point spot and it was private road now. Do you have a route that we could get to the area you were digging in?

[@Mike-br8vb]

What a fantastic video! I can't believe the amount of material just lying around all over the ground. Nice work you guys!

[@kellyharper367]

Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Love that GLOW! That area is one of the areas that got me hooked on rockhounding as a kid...about age 9 if I remember correctly. Been decades since I've been back there. So wonderful to get to be there with you via KZbin and see y'all enjoy collecting the same stuff today! Thanks for helping me remember magical times.

That is an awesome place, a rockhound's dream! What awesome agates. I would look for just enough to have for my collection.i have so many specimens I have to be very picky. But I am definitely drooling!

Hey CR, thanks for sharing the post, very much appreciated!👍 Was great finally meeting in person and am glad you enjoyed the time out at graveyard point!✔ Look forward to hunting with you Sara and Mica again real soon sir~ Love the video, really good views of what the desert landscape looks like out there and the types of materials that can be found wandering the ridges and draws! Hope you have an awesome week ahead and talk again soon! PS...its awesome seeing you enjoy your first experience there as much as I did, excellent and makes me very happy to know! 😁🎁

Drooling? Who's drooling? Oh wait, that's me. Agate, agate, agate, agate, agate, agate...... Why would I be drooling? Agate, agate, agate...... Puppy enthusiasm can be challenging at times, but eventually it turns into a companion who just really wants to be with you. Lyka will get there. 😊 Thank you for taking us on a super cool rockhounding adventure.

[@randyalanko4903]

Very nice vid, thanks! My first rockhounding trip with our club was last March (it'd been dry!) to Graveyard Point. I was completely hooked! It is many square miles, hit by collectors for decades but still producing enormous quantities of float material. The main limitation is how much one wants to carry. There are some large hidden pieces peeking out like that nice one in your vid. To those wanting directions, easiest is to get the Falcon Oregon or Idaho rockhounding guides, it is in both.

Congrats on quite the haul. I have lots of agates, buckets, boxes, shelves, drawers, etc..full of them. Lots of green and red jaspers too. I was born into a rockhounding family.

Omg! I know that astonishment when there's an incredible abundance of something just one piece of you'd go bananas over somewhere else. Not too far from there is the same crazy amount, not of agate, but of what the locals call picture jasper. Came back with 90 lbs in one hour. I've never seen anything like it.

nice to meet you guys out there, missed you Sunday afternoon and Monday, some nice finds on the other side of the reservoir

[@jimv.661]

I'm new to all of this and while agate/jasper/petrified wood hunting with my grandson a couple of weeks ago I was also finding a lot of that thin stuff. It was all over the place. Now I know. what it is. I also figured out one other thing. You walk out as far away as you want to hunt and wait to start filling the bags until on the way back. I would load a backpack with 70 lbs of jasper and agate and also carry a pillowcase with another 40-50 lbs. Never did get more than 200 yds from the vehicle. I was picking a lot of big pieces for flintknapping. By the time we left my 3/4 T Suburban with airbags was sagging.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

What's your plan for that much material?

[@jimv.661]

We have to have a plan? Ha! I'm ordering a QT12 Lortone tumbler and a Hi-Tech 10" flat lap so we can have fun making things out of them. As I told my grandson, half the fun is just in the hunting for them. Now we will have fun using them.

Just happend to stumble upon your video, very nice hunt, my great grandfather left me a ton of seam agate, tons of other agates that he collected from all over South Dakota, Wyoming & Montana, I'm sure other states to he would find rocks every where he went, and now I've picked up where he left off, I forgot to mention the seam agates your finding dont look anything like the ones I have maybe theres diffrent types of seam agates

[@dillydilly7693]

You're in my back yard. I live on the Idaho side about 15 minutes from there. I've spent countless hours out there. We also had a lot of rain last week so it washed off a lot of the rocks.

Yeah it was prefect timing for use, not to muddy, and the ground wasn't rock solid yet. We did hit some deep water holes as we did some driving around out there.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

We have a garden wagon but it's a hard one which takes up a lot of space. You also have a lot of really good rock hunting locations over in SW Oregon. Have you heard of the Jackery portable power supply? They come in 3 different sizes, you can charge them with a solar panel or off your car as you drive, maybe something like that would work?

[@Lisa.Sparkman]

@@CurrentlyRockhounding I will check out that power supply thing. We have one of those hard metal wagons as well. We have livestock so we use it a lot. My brother just found a thunderegg in his irrigation ditch! He runs the area water control gates from his property. He is also saving all the petrified wood he is finding in there as well. The Mt Mazamma eruption was good to us over here.

[@RandyRobin]

Very helpful - thanks! It was a bit confusing when I went out there. I felt like I needed to be wary of not collecting on someone's claim. Not sure where to look that up. I did some rockhounding on the site near the Graveyard Point historical marker. Crossing the dry canal was difficult in the crumbling rock, especially when hauling back my finds in buckets and bags. Not sure how that would be accomplished with water in the canal. I also drove out into the area south of there. Need to go with someone more familiar with the area.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

The claims should be clearly marked, if not its on the claim owner to do so. I hope you had some good finds.
