Hood - so much to see, many different rocks that I’ve never seen before! Thank You

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

It's a learning experience going to the shows.

[@kellyharper367]

Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Those are beautiful jaspers. That one slab of " supernatural jasper " that you were touching reminds me of scenes from "Nightmare Before Christmas ". Check it out and see if you see the ghosts and the cyclops jack-o-lantern. Great show! I used to go there when I lived in the pacific north west. Gosh...I do miss the shows. Thank you for taking this old fossil along with y'all.

Stay tuned for some rockhounding videos from that area as well!

[@Iamtheiguana]

Good video, and it was a great show. I was there early Friday as they opened.

[@kylaabegglen1275]

Great variety of materials and prices, definitely something for everyone. Glad you found more magazines so there will be more podcasts. I'm going to start listening to them while doing my chores around the house to make the chores more pleasant. Thanks for sharing the Mt. Hood rock and mineral show with us. Our local one is great just no where near the size. Thanks Jared and Sarah!✌️🤠 Hood

The Magazines , what a deal! You could sell on eBay! Those $1 slabs were incredible. We will likely go to that show next year so thanks for letting us see it.HOOD!

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

The MHRC show was really good, you should try to find some of the other shows in western Oregon to check out as well.

[@stephansmithakatroutscout1391]

Hood. Another great video. I am limited by age so going on adventures with you allows me to wander and wonder even if it is only in my mind. Hood.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

You're always welcome here.

Nice video! I was there Sunday. Place was packed!

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

That's good hear.

[@davdschlagel7972]

Hood great info show.

[@curtd7117]

Hey guys nice stuff 👍👍!! So this is funny I already seen this about 11 minutes after it came out but was too busy to leave a comment. Here it is Saturday in the morning May 14 at 1:19 AM!!! So you know I had to come back and leave a little something something 😉! My wife and I just went to our local rock and mineral show in Cheyenne Wyoming two weekends ago and it was nothing like what you had there!! Loved all the beautiful stuff you showed! I like the fact that you enjoy looking at the rough part of the rocks also!! It’s kind of like looking under the hood 😉!! Get it get it? Under the HOOD!! Then you really see what’s inside! You’ve got me jonesing for a Thunder Egg 🥚!!! I won a silent auction and got a nice little triplet and one standalone Thunderegg for $4.00!! Now I need a saw to see what’s under the…….hood 🤩!!! Did I go a little overboard???🤣 See ya tonight for another edition of “ Saturday Night Special”!!! KEEP ‘EM COMING!!! Thanks so much!!☺️ 🪨 ❤️🤠

[@curtd7117]

Yay for the Mt Hood Rock Club!!! Hood

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

What was your show like out there? How was it different?

[@curtd7117]

@@CurrentlyRockhounding Well for one it was a lot smaller, but remember in Wyoming our statistics can be so skewed because of the per capita and low population. It seamed to be more geared towards the retail side of stuff and the local rock club didn’t have any nice display cases like you showed there. Don’t get me wrong, it was nice and they had a geologist on site so I got some help identifying or reaffirming what types of rock I have. Also today my wife and I are visiting relatives in Arvada Colorado and we went to a local rock shop which was…..0MG awesome! I am going to join the local rock club in Cheyenne because this is my retirement hobby! I got hooked on rocks when I was a freshman in high school. I may never get to all the wonderful places Wyoming has to offer but I’m going to give it my best shot!!

[@dadyjj]

Been enjoying your videos, very helpful for a newbie getting started! Hood!

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

I'm glad you like them.

[@emptywallet7533]

Some of the prices where top price but it also had item that where affordable. Mt Hood is a place I would like to visit again.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

I really like it when there is a big range to look at.

[@coreyrivers9317]

Some really cool pieces at that show! HOOD

[@dustinfindsrocks]

Some great scores 👍🏼 I’m going to have to hope over to your website and listen to some previously rockhounding podcasts while I’m cleaning rocks today. In the HOOD! Lol jk some of the deer here are pretty gangsta though 😂

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

How are you liking the podcast?

[@spetkovsek57]

FYI the big piece of Picture Jasper at the Silent Auction area went for $111 when it was all finished.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

Someone can get a bunch of slabs out of that.

[@trashjournalistjourney6104]

Type Oregon weather to me. Hope the road cut was better! You did score on the magazines! Hood!

[@paigelee6321]

Wow awesome always enjoy your adventures 😊💙

[@reiki11]

Really cool slabs!

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

Thank you!

[@elissagardner5116]

Welcome to the "Hood"! We went to the show on Sunday and heard you had been there the day before. Those boxes are incredible! I bought a Biggs box and someone else's stack of magazines. Your moss agate slice definitely looks like Maury Mountain material. Great video as always!

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

Maybe next time our paths will cross at a show! The boxes are lovely. What years did you buy?

[@elissagardner5116]

@@CurrentlyRockhounding Mostly 80s and 90s, but a few from the 60s! Also a bunch of Lapidary Journals from the early 2000s.

[@daveparnell3886]

Ton of great info in those magazines probably some forgotten places...

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

They really are like looking into a time capsule.

[@rockfishdad]

Wish I could have made it out there, the Mt. Hood club looks awesome. :)

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

It's a really good club.

[@daveparnell3886]

Some of that bright turquoise blue picture stone looks like it's from Dan Hurds claim.

Hood was a great show

[@ElisabethLunaGoth]

Hello fellow Spokane area rock hounds! I greatly enjoy your channel and retracing your footsteps on my own botanical and geologic explorations. This was another great episode and I learned plenty. What a great rock show! Autocorrect wants me to say good rather than hood.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

Hello! I'm glad you're out their checking out some of the spots!

[@dreamweaver3095]

"You chose wisely" on those back issues ;)

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

I'm glad I scooped them up.

[@rockrockprettyrock6594]

I like your trips to rock shows. I have never been at one so it is a treat for me to go along with you and Sarah. The $1 slabs are awesome (really everything is awesome!) I think I could spend a lot of time going through slabs choosing several for projects that pop into mind. So, “Hood” with hopes of winning the slabs you are giving away. But we all want to win so Good Luck to everyone! And congratulations to the winner whomever it turns out to be! I enjoy your channel, Jared. Keep up the good work!

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

The shows are pretty neat, we always learn something when we go. Many of the vendors are happy to talk about the rocks and excited to share what they know about them.

[@iainwhitford7602]

Definitely should have visited the Mt HOOD show.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

Next year you should go!

[@charlesfrederick7074]

Glad ya bought the mags :) Hood

[@BackcountrywithShaughn]

Hopefully won't be on a support call when your new content drops! Looking forward to seeing the show from another perspective. 🤔 Thanks as always for sharing sir, madam and pooch~👍 Hope you'all have a great week ahead!

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

We had a great time at it!

Loooved the show! Wish I could have made it. That random agate slab though😍😍 throwin my comment in for the give away!! Mt #HOOD rock and gem!!

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

:)

[@rachaelb9164]

Thanks for the great footage. My wife and I just became members at MHRC last month and she helped with the kids corner. I bought slabs from the same guy you had in the beginning. Poor outside people got dumped on by the rain. It was my first rock show and a ton of fun. Are you guys going to be at the regional Portland show in October?

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

Thank you! MHRC is a great club. As of right now we don't know if we will be back for the show in October or not.

[@AwokenMinds]

Get the box!!!!

[@mikewoodOR]

Hood! If you have the February 1978 Rock and Gem Magazine, my dad is featured in an article about Oregon Jade.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

Unfortunately I'm missing almost all of 1978 :(

[@spetkovsek57]

Jared, pick through your new/old collection of R&G magazines for March 2014 : vol 44 issue 03 page 16 and you'll find my contribution titled "Shield Cab Contest".

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

Dang, we don't have that issue yet. I would of loved to see that.

[@stevedierks74]

Nice video, i should have went when it was happening. Does anyone know what the black, orange,red / brown and clear agate thing is at 20:22 when he puts his "Foot" cast down, its to the right of that. Yes, it was great seeing the pricing too, i always feel awkward going into a place and wondering if the prices will be sky high or ground low. ; )

[@silverback5033]

Hi Jared, that rock show was pretty awesome. I’m like you I pretty tight with my wallet when it comes to buying rocks, though at some of those prices I would have bought a little bit myself. Wish I could be in the draw for those slabs they are pretty interesting but shipping to Oz would be prohibitive. Really engrossing video, that I didn’t see coming when your watching someone else at a rock show. 👍. Keep Safe & Keep Rockin

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

I'm glad you liked it. I'm pretty tight when it comes to buying stuff but $1 a slab, ill drop some coin for those.

[@silverback5033]

@@CurrentlyRockhounding I’m pretty much the same in that regard, I usually end up spending a couple of dollars each on my grandkids and come home with very little for myself. I get a lot more enjoyment from getting out and finding (at least trying) rocks for myself.

[@becomingee9803]

HOOD Thank you for the video!

[@ocklawahaboyrocks]

I've only made it half way through but 2 comments: 1. Way to leave us hanging on whether you bought the magazines or not. 2. I tried to send you to a great place to buy Picasso marble dirt cheap. You drove right by it. I don't think you can dig it yourself. I'll catch the 2nd half tomorrow.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

The magazines made it home! :)

[@gsmith478]

Did that rock read 380 degrees. You gotta go back and get that thing. Anything that goes over 360....we're in the 4th dimension or something baby!

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

That was the price on it. Yikes that's too much for this guy.

[@WorldofRockhounds]

What's good in the hood?! Haha I was tempted to go to that show but my wallet said, "No!" I'm glad you went back for those magazines, it will be a great content for your podcast as well as a great comparison between the decades.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

You should vend at some of these, the outside tables were $80 for the weekend.

[@WorldofRockhounds]

@@CurrentlyRockhounding That's a pretty good price!

[@charlesjohansen2644]

I think you almost talked yourself out of the magazines, but I knew you couldn't pass them up. Hood for the slabs.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

I wanted them, I knew it was a good deal but this was also just the start of the weekend trip for us so it was a little bit of a pain driving around with stacks of magazines in the car but overall it was worth it I think.

[@kerickwalters2749]

Hood!

[@thegatesofdawn...1386]

Wouldn't it be nice to make a table top or something out of slabs, like mosaic style.
