Petrified Wood Trees, High Grade Jasper & Agate Hunt

[@QuestForDetails]

those logs are epic , imagine the slabs, nice adventure, keep rocking' !

[@MontanaRockMom]

They were so epic....I can't wait to go back to this place. There was probably quite a bit I didn't see since it was a new spot for me.... 🪵🪵🪵

[@carlwiedenhoeft2427]

I really like the Jasper with the Packer colors!

[@MontanaRockMom]

It's going on my shelf...never cutting that one. It's epic.

[@ginalanning5303]

The video starts and I'm like dang bless her heart. That stinks. Flat tire yuck. Then I'm like oh wow must have been a bad storm. Look at those downed trees! And you said what??!!!! Pet wood 😲😲🤯 great treasures.

[@ginalanning5303]

So how do you restrain from taking it all home. I'm seeing them and I'm wanting them all. All the rocks

[@patriciamckean4186]

So many....beauties! Come on sun 🌞. Tire changing doesn't stop MRM!

[@MontanaRockMom]

Haha...it did for a little bit! 🚗😪

[@darrinwilliams5715]

Right on Kim. You find some of the most beautiful agates.😎

[@gemstonejudy5900]

Wow!I'm in love with that gorgeous Greenland yellow jasper, near the end! Green is my favorite color!

[@MontanaRockMom]

I put it on my shelf ...it's beautiful even without polishing!

[@bobs-rocks]

Wow, you always find such cool rocks... I'm Jealous .

Exceptional finds!

You are living on the best place on earth !! wonderful stones

[@lyneece1956]

I started off “wow” then, oh my gosh, then they just kept getting better and better. This is the first of your videos I’ve seen, I’m hooked.

[@MontanaRockMom]

Thank you for watching Spinster!

[@rabbithole1331]

what a trip you had that day

[@leslyeschoenhuth1107]

* Some of the rocks you found would make me a "Hoarder" in no time.. So Amazing..

[@elizabethvandeventer5487]

So glad you were able to change that tire without getting hurt. 👍

[@kennethbynum7839]

OMG. What you found today most of us will never find in a life time. Rock on MRM .. Keep the awesome videos coming..

[@MontanaRockMom]

Thank you Kenneth

[@grantfahlman1815]

Kudos, Kim! A nasty flat tire doesn't stop the true fun ahead. That PW at the front end is crazy. It's amazing to see that in such a condition and placement; likely exactly where it had once grown. That is sooo cool!

[@MontanaRockMom]

It was pretty cool...and so unexpected. When I first saw it I couldn't believe it. There were lots of little crystals growing it some of the pockets and veins of chalcedony all over. Gosh geology is fantastic.

[@suzannemorris2036]

Great job changing the tire , I see your rock hounding didn't disappoint ! Love the beautiful Petrified wood. Gorgeous rock find!

[@raundupuis3134]

If I ever win a lottery, all I can say is "Road Trip"! I'm as green with envy as some of that jasper!

[@jenniwebster7122]

Ya good luck finding it! Just walked the yellowstone river from 8:00 am to 7:00 pm and found one the size of my pinkie finger!

[@raundupuis3134]

@@jenniwebster7122 Must have looked in the wrong spots?

[@jenniwebster7122]

@raundupuis3134 I don't know it was still beautiful and I love being out in nature and honestly I could have walked another 3 days and not got sick of it!!

[@watermelon-rx5ok]

This rock hunt is fantastic. I'm obsessed with so many of the gorgeous rocks you found. I'd love to take a trip to Montana so I could find even one rock like these!!!

[@billpattison4702]

I love watching you find these great rocks 🎉

[@MontanaRockMom]

Thanks for watching!

[@whycivilequalsinsane]

What a dream it is to watch your videos. Thank you for sharing.

[@daleschroeder232]

I seldom comment, but need to tell you how much I enjoy going hounding with you. I'm 70 now and can't hike much any more. I get an agate rush when you find one of those exquisite treasures. Thanks for sharing your love for the rocks and nature's artwork.

[@imuneik]

I agree!!! I’m living out my rock, hounding vicariously through you❤😂

[@pennyholley4539]

14:25…. Wow!!! Never have I seen a jasper so beautiful!!!

[@dancewalkertarot]

Oh the one at 12:22 is so cool. Ok, they are all cool, who am I kidding. Gorgeous geology.

[@terrylschumacher-levy5150]

🤩 Gobsmacked once again at your outstanding find Kim 🙌🙌🙌

[@todddaugherty110]

Something just ATE that tire. As always, such fine material.

[@MontanaRockMom]

Chomped it T-Rex style and then spit it out.

[@singalaras]

Nice Hunting Agate👍👍👍

[@bryanolsen5764]

Lots of banded agates and the yellow and green rock was fantastic

[@denisweimer8791]

Wow, the dendrites and other inclusions were out in full force this week! Very nice. But I'm not going to sleep knowing that giant piece of petrified wood is still out there!

[@MontanaRockMom]

I must go back. I need that wood. 🪵

[@TheAdventureCloset]

What a sweet spot. Montana amazes us. Well done!

[@MontanaRockMom]

My favorite spot ever! Thank you for watching. I have lived in many places but Montana far exceeds any expectation I might have had for her. She is lovely in every way. Her sky and land are endless. She presents treasure after treasure, especially when you're not looking for it. She is rugged and she can be down right cruel if she is not respected. Love. Montana.

[@treasurelife6922]

Got a hold of a hell of a rock to gouge that sidewall huh. I've done that in New Mexico and Colorado. You have yourself a hotspot right there with some gorgeous rocks. Can't wait to see them slabbed.

[@ruksrocksandadventures.5800]

Chatham island style wheel change right there👌😁🤘 suck's getting a flat but that was awesome, you rock. I hope you one's have an amazing weekend. 🤘💎🤘

[@dustinfindsrocks]

Wow!!! I don’t usually care much for jasper but… that green and yellow piece is one smexy rock!!!!

[@shawnnorrell1686]

Awesome finds. I learned the hard way to carry two spare tires when I go out four wheeling. Had two blowouts on one rock in the Las Vegas desert one time Had to hike for four miles thru 110 degree heat. And hitch hike for a ride to town. Than call a friend to take me back to my pu. Long Day Allways be prepared for anything Love your channel 👍😊😎

[@MontanaRockMom]

Oh my goodness yes that sounds like a long day for sure and a lesson learned. Did you have enough water? I'm always running out of water in the summer on super hot days.

[@youtubeeagleeyeswatcher7809]

Montana is a great rock place! Beautiful.

[@Timothious_Maximus]

Handled that tire change like a champ, well played.

[@mrfxm55]

It's among the best I've seen looking at the many rock hunting channels I've seen that are legit. Some of those agates I've never seen in the 40 years I've been a lapidary and hunter myself. Excuse the expression but you rock! Hopefully you'll cut some of those and show off the awesome slices of this particular adventure.

[@deniseview4253]

Beautiful rocks!

[@billpattison4702]

When I was out rockhounding petrified wood was always my favorite But the stuff you find in Montana is the very best You are in the right spot!!!

[@TinasTimelessTreasures]

Beautiful and Unusual Finds! Need to see those babies slabbed!

[@savagesquirrel9828]

Amazing finds. I hope you can find your way back there with some help and get a few of those big pieces. They would be beautiful just in the yard! I’m sure you will get some nice days. Hell of a flat! I have changed tires but at this point in my life I would want someone else to do it. It looked dangerous and sandy. Still, if no help is available, I would try.

[@debbiemitchell6055]

I would start crying finding all of those, because I know I couldn't carry everything out. 10 trips to the car I hope! Wow what a fantastic day for you!

[@wallflowerjr]

I agree tire Changing mama , you are the cutest rock hunter I know of yet you make me jealous every time those rocks are incredible in such a variety, seriously thanks very Much.

Salut, Many claim or realize that certain stones have personality, but do you ever notice the faces and expressions there upon each one? Crazy cool rocks Sweet Woman.... Cheers and Blessings, as always!

I am impressed that you were able to change your tire on that Jeep. I would love to see that Petrified Wood you found @ 2:20 after you cut it.

[@stevemace1725]

My favorite jasper color is that light green? I don't know why? Love that wood too, lol rock on!

[@sandmaker]

It looks like one of Drogon's relatives went after your tire. I think it was Tiregon. Beautiful rocks as always. Lots of pet, and agate but I like the jaspers best. I saw Chopper took the high ground to keep a lookout for predators. What a fun trip, flat tire included. Be happy, safe and stay healthy 😷⚒

[@csimpson9522]

I watched your video where Chopper found a snake. In California you can get your dog vaccinated for rattlesnake venom bites. It’s supposed to help them build a immunity to the snake bites. Just a thought.

Rough start to the hunt , but everything turned out great ! Those jaspers are beautiful. That piece of agatized wood at 10:30 looked familiar? 😉 I have a similar piece I found when I was young . Thanks for sharing! Keep rockin!!!👍😎

[@MontanaRockMom]

😉😉😉❤ Thanks Tim

[@kylaabegglen1275]

WOW! Such fantastic finds today! I absolutely love all of the jasper and jaspagates, but my favorite is the green and yellow one.🤩 The amount and size of the petrified wood was crazy, very beautiful pieces for sure. Those agates with the dendritic patterns are incredible! Is the bluish white on some of the agates common opal? You definitely earned and deserved every find on this trip with all the extra work you had to do to change your tire. You're a true Montana gal, tough and self-reliant! Thanks for an amazing video and sharing your adventure with us Kim!✌🤠

[@MontanaRockMom]

The green and yellow jasper is one of the most intense colored jaspers I've ever found in Montana! And yes, the bluish white is often common opal. Thanks for Watching Kyla!

Props to you for changing that tire in adverse conditions. Great video, makes me want to go hunting myself up here in British Columbia 🤗

I educated myself in all the "things," bought a gun, got a satellite phone, and now I just go for it...you should too!

You should bring a small flashlight with you when you rock hound.

[@halinawojciechowska4612]

Bardzo piękne Agaty.

[@НиколайБахур-э6д]

Подписался 👍 Интересные находки ! Жду продолжения 🤗

[@mrfxm55]

Just a bit of knowledge about value of materials found. The color wheel with primary colors is the price value also. Red is number one then blue then green in that order for the top three colors you'd like to find for profitability. Or value in your rocks. It's good for trade also with other rockhounds and even dealers at shows.

[@MontanaRockMom]

I should save more reds...we just have so much. I usually will never keep a rock if it's only one color...even though we have such large beautiful chunks of red jasper. Actually, I have kept some large green aventurine pieces. Those are so pretty too.

[@MontanaRockMom]

Keep the knowledge drops coming! I 💚 you

[@mrfxm55]

@@MontanaRockMom I just caught the end of this video today. That one clearly masterful multi colored Jasper the one you said ooo that doesn't stand out. I hope you cut that one on a video. It's a good candidate for an orientation study. As in it's not bread. You could slice it in so many different angles but it's hard to know what's really going on until you make the first cut and that decides what you do next and so on. Get the best out of your stone not the most is the best rule.

Have you considered rigging up some sort of a wagon & harness system for Chopper? I'm sure he could pull at least 25 lbs., maybe more. Nice finds, sorry about the tire.

It looks like your tire was run low on air. They told all over themselves a get torn up within a block or two. My dad had a service has station and shop on north 27th st I worked at for a long time fixing car stuff. I fixed lots of tires. Most don't know how quickly they disintegrate when flat until it's to late.

Hey Nich...I promise you have treasure in Oklahoma also! One of my neighbors lived there and tells me all the time of all the artifacts there.
