Rockhounding Swollen Creeks • For Agates & Chalcedony Treats

[@raintree8926]

Where is the dog?

[@Rookie_Rockounding]

Back with its owners. So we left him at the local store because they said they had seen the doggo before and that the owners were in the area. The owners saw the pup that afternoon and took him home. He had been missing for a couple of days!

I love the rocks but love even more what you guys did for the dog. That dog tried to impress you with his rock finding skills... smart dog. ❤️❤️❤️

[@Rookie_Rockounding]

Thank you, we were lucky to find him, but he was such a cool little rockhounding buddy. 😊

Best way to start my day, coffee and the lovely agates! You are the only person that I'm not jealous of when you find those magnificent stones!

that dog is what you would call a rockhound. had to throw in my lame dad joke lol. Just found your channel, its really awesome! thanks for being so kind to the dog, he seemed like a good pup :)

[@Rookie_Rockounding]

Aye! Dad jokes are the best mate! Haha! Thank you so much Mitch, I’m really glad you enjoy the videos. 😁

[@CityRockhounding]

Man, your videos are so much fun looking I just couldn't take it anymore. I had to take the family out hunting. We went up north to our cabin, checked out a small beach where a few weeks ago we found some different quartz. But it was already picked over. We followed the train track back to our cabin and Holy crap found a bunch of different jasper. We also found some golf ball size quartz and some chert. So much fun hunting with my wife and kids, it started raining on us and it made it easier to see the rocks. I found this crazy green rock, so bold in color with yellowish oh most like webbing mixed in it, super cool. Thanks to your videos I kind of had an idea what to look for. Still in the early stages, but I will get there soon! This video was awesome by the way way better find then I did, but one day I hope to pull out big ass agates and other beautiful rocks out of the creek/river. The dog was super cool in this video as well. Keep up the awesome work!

[@MJMucha]

The doggo was thanking you for helping him by finding rocks for you! I hope you thanked him! And I hope he finds his forever home. Great rockhound!

[@Rookie_Rockounding]

Heyyyy! So good news is that his forever family lived about 100 meters from the shop that tied him up and said he had gotten out about 3 days before. They were super grateful. Seriously so happy we found his home for him again. 😁👍

Oh he was just too cool, and I thought he’d run away instantly back home but he was content spending the morning with us. A very cool experience indeed. He found his family in the end also. So great news there! 😁

[@fungoorstitch]

Rock hounding is a beautiful addiction. There's something special about harvesting fat hunks of glimmering quartz and other curiosities from gurgling stream beds that no one would have ever seen if not for you.

[@Rookie_Rockounding]

It’s just the best isn’t it, I love that feeling as you head out to your favourite spot and you’re not sure what’s gonna happen but that it’s gonna be a great day! Have an awesome weekend my friend and happy hounding!!!!!

[@fungoorstitch]

Well put. The addiction part is also a great way to get people out into the wilderness again, which is always the real treasure no matter what you're doing in it. We've lost that, and it's bad for everyone because man was born there and was never really meant to leave. He was given heaven and everything he needed to enrich his soul, and he traded it for a gizmo with lights in it that causes cancer in laboratory animals and a factory hardhat. He's been miserable ever since, and when he hangs that hardhat on the nail at the end of the day, he has the audacity to look for heaven in the sky. Thoreau said "simplicity, simplicity, simplicity", and he was right. Me, I just say "go rock hounding".

[@Rookie_Rockounding]

Haha! “Me I just say go rockhounding” haha! So well put my friend! Nature is where home is I reckon 😁

I wish I had friends like you guys here , you guys just focus on those rocks! No one I know cares about rocks as much as I do and we live near a volcanic area from millions of years ago and peridot is everywhere in the desert! They are beautiful crystals of olivine and horneblend. Not everyone shares my enthusiasm about rocks. But the nice thing is on my birthday instead of getting me gifts they will bring me beautiful rocks they found and I am so gratefull for that. Love your rock videos! I love watching you guys look for rocks.

[@casperrah220]

With respect... what is this stone worth per carat?

[@Rookie_Rockounding]

That’s a good question, but I can’t honestly say. It’s probably not a stone that has a carat worth that is the same for each piece like a diamond does. It’s more about what can be done with it and the quality of the stone as in if it’s fractured or unique. But it’s definitely a great question. I think I’m gonna have to look into it a bit more. @Casper Rah

[@BackcountrywithShaughn]

Friday again? Dang i'm getting old! Nice sunrise and a great day of finds sir. The freshly stirred and washed gravels sure make spotting glowing goodness easier!👍 Rockhounds meet rockhound, rock dogs are so funny~ Great job getting him out of the creek and hopefully one step closer to home, if I could I'd give you a billion thumbs up for just being a good human being and watching out for those creatures who cannot do everything themselves. Not sure why they call them gravel "beds", I'm too busy searching and digging to lay down but you seem to have some good ones there at that creek with carnelian joy blessing your fossicking bags. Holy smokes cannot tell you how much I love the mixture of minerals you guys are finding in a single location and everytime you pull up a big piece on video i'm practically crawling through the screen screaming, "freak I wanna cut that!!!!" There's a place up north in Washington famous for blue agate called Ellensberg blue but ironically, it doesn't come from there, 35 million years ago a river crossed through the nearby mountain range and swept what material they find there down into the valley. It's a fairly difficult/rare find anymore with most of the folks who know of good spots keeping those close held secrets so don't go telling everyone where you are getting that luxurious blue treasure. Think it's time for you to head upstream and find the source of all that is wondrous and uplifting filling your pockets! Each time you two find another nice specimen is really awesome and gives me the feeling of when I'm out searching even when I'm not, thanks so much for sharing all the tasty treats with us sedentary tubers. (stuffed with turkey from yesterday and would drown out hunting today) PS. Who quits hunting after only 1/2 day? What's that all about, dawn to dusk is the best hunting as you get light at every angle IMO. Tell Benny a crazy tuber from the states is demanding more effort! haha 🤣 Thanks again gentlemen~

[@Rookie_Rockounding]

Backcountry with Shaughn Haha! Gravel “beds”. That’s a good point man, maybe it’s for when we find amazing massive pieces it’s where we can lay down and catch our breath lol! I watched an information session on those blue agate a while back, so interesting to see how far they travelled from the original source hey. Geology is nuts. Yeah the real life rockhound, what a gentle little soul he is man, I’m gonna stop in next time and see where he ended up. Definitely working our way upstream to where the source hopefully is. We found a spot on the map where it shows no creek, yet there’s one there, so we may start there and work our way down soon. Fingers crossed, you never know with this creek, it’s a moody one if rocks were emotions. If that makes sense haha! Sometimes great others just nothin. Makes it fun though. Oh yeah, haha! When Benny left I thought the same thing but we had our uncle out there with us for his first time to show him how fun it is but he had to head home. It’s so much better with others out there with ya though. Happy thanks giving good sir! Turkey coma’s are real man. Take care bud until next time!
