Rockhounding the Electric Hill Country of San Antonio & Austin ⚡️Texas⚡️

[@tonylang7526]

GR8 STUFF!! MY PENNSYLVANIA LIMESTONE, SHALE, COAL AND SANDSTONE IS NOTHING LIKE THE PLASMA-ZAPPED GUTS OF TEXAS!!

[@sterling8298]

I go out all the time looking for crystals, rocks And fossil.😊⚒️💎 And I take home everything I find.😊😊😊😊😊

You can see with your eyes a Blue North come into Texas. It comes from the west, you can if you're in a clearing. You can jump into to it and then jump out of it. It's blue and gray that LINES across the sky like a blanket.

[@tonylang7526]

WELL, AS MUCH AS I WANTED TO SEE THE FIRST FILMED ROCKHOUND DISEMBOWELMENT BY A CHUPACABRA, THAT LITTLE CAVE IS A SENSATIONAL MIX OF FORMS AND MATTER!!

[@raymondbrown940]

At 6:50, that looks like concrete poured around a post in the ground with rocks surrounding the hole. Then, the whole thing was dug up, the pole removed, and it's left sitting on the ground.

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

I agree. It certainly looked manmade with the rocks placed around the outside.

[@sterling8298]

The place is a hunt in Austin, Texas.I find crystal's by the boat load. You just have to know where to look.

[@benwinter2420]

As kids earlier we used to chip fish 'petrified' out of an shale like substance on the coast . . from the cliffs of the northern beachs Avalon NSW . . perfect examples of perch like fish petrified in abundance . . an Peter Mungo Jupp . . bolt out of the blue

[@glenn5903]

Beautiful country. Id keep that one rock just because of how weird it was 😂

[@hectornegrete6877]

You need to make a video of the Lano River and picking through the sediment for gold. It’s there I know this for a fact. And it’s near Kingsland at the slab. Locals should be able to direct you to it. While most swim and play in the water some are there getting the goods.

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

Oh, I'd like me some gold! Haha thanks!

[@sterling8298]

I wish I could get about 200 thousand people to leave austin like right now. That would make my Year.😊

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

Haha exactly why I moved in 2017. Too many people… and gridlock :( I miss the beauty of Austin landscapes

[@whalepsychologist]

Stone Oak Park! I live about 5 minutes from there. I find a lot of calcite there.

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

Heck yeah! I really liked that park. I should go back, now that it's not freezing outside!

[@bigred4340]

Sorry for mistaken the amber honey calcite for yellow calcite! Looks like you found some cool stuff though. I’ll have to make a video showing the spot I found with all the fragments of crystals, it was everywhere in the dirt sucks you didn’t find it! I have a bunch of the crystals cleaned up that I’ll be sure to include in the vid. That Celestine was amazing I had no clue that stuff was just on top of the dirt! Thanks for the knowledge you had to offer about some of the stuff that is around my neighborhood over here in San Antonio!

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

Big Red I think it was honey calcite after washing & scrubbing :)

[@bigred4340]

@@ElectricUniverseEyes woah! I don’t remember seeing that part of the video! That’s pretty cool a nice piece you found. I’ll upload a video today of the stuff I’ve found, I’ll let you know when it’s uploaded. I know I said that the other day lol but foreal this time! I went out behind my apartment complex which is right behind a active mine and I didn’t really find much, I got so close I heard voices but didn’t dare to go closer! There’s a dry river bed also behind my apartment that I checked out but didn’t come up on anything, besides a cool piece of drift wood😎 for what? Idk. Lmfao. I really enjoy your videos of you exploring around especially cause you explore places close to me. Keep them up!

[@benwinter2420]

I think that small 'volcano' thing is man made . . but there were places on the north coast of Oz . . where you would see them actual in groups . . they were ancient large mud lobster holes as in they built up an cone ( like a submarine conning tower to get above the tides) . . petrified after an comet bolt (my theory) . . we used to collect smaller petrified specimens of those mud lobsters at certain beach locations after storms . . they were petrified & not 'fossilised' . . as they were frozen in life . . when turned to stone . . we had those petrified lobster 'home' cones . . as garden ornaments , as well as the rock lobsters themselves . . back in day up there

[@chrisweatherley9587]

keep in mind that the tops of rocks were not always the tops of rocks. dendritic patterns can occur whilst on the underside via erosion. not to detract from your quest though as you are on the right path.

[@glenn5903]

It all has a story to tell😅

[@user-er8zi1ws4n]

Awesome video and findings!Where exactly did you go in austin ??

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

Started on west CR239 from 35, then went to South Fork of San Gabriel River (east side of 183) north of Leander

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

Oh shoot, different video. The intro was north of Austin at a rest stop, then ended up on the north side of San Antonio - Friedrich Wilderness Park I believe

[@catskittenscatsnkittens8776]

Hello! I’m going to the marble falls/ austin area at the end of the month for my birthday. Any suggestions on rockhounding or fossil locations? I really appreciate it, my first time coming out there to look :) Thanks!!

[@8arrows]

Happy Birthday. I know every inch of Burnet County. I live in Marble’. Only thing of value I found around Marble Falls, were arrowheads. West side of town is granite,and entirely off limits due to the Granite Mountain Quarry, if u see a large dome of Granite. It and all the minerals around it. Belong souly to Granite Mountain Quarry, and all the limestone, and fossils within, in the areas east of town belong to Huber Quarry. For cool stuff you gotta go to Burnet, Buchanan, and Llano. 95% of Texas is private land, and nowadays. Everyone has trail cameras. At Long’s Fishing Camp in Kingsland Texas. 13 miles west of Marble on 1431 West. They also allow public digging. Check out Eagle Rock if visiting Long’s. There is also land owners off highway 29 South between Buchanan and Llano that allow tourist to pan gold dust.

[@sashakys]

@@8arrows hi, where exactly in marble falls can you find arrowheads?

[@8arrows]

@@sashakysanywhere you look. I’ve literally found them all over. 1 on school grounds. 2 in my backyard. Bunch out by Long’s fishing camp. Mormon Mills Road. Cottonwood shores. Marble falls was once ocean front property. Right through the middle of town there is a divide from granite to limestone everything south and to the east is limestone. Everything north and to the west is granite. Not a lot of arrowheads wherever you see limestone. That would of been under the ocean’s surface. So stick to digging in areas of granite around here. Who knows you might get lucky and find a topaz, sapphire, etc.

[@sashakys]

@@8arrows thanks😃

[@casseld73]

I have big slabs of limestone that ring. Yes I live in the hill country.

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

I’d love to come rock hound one day :)

[@vickigermunson5615]

Dude you missed a nice big crystal in the hole!

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

I know. Can’t get them all :(

[@WatcherofVids]

pro tip, do not take anything from a public park. it is law for most states,.not sure texas, and illegal in NPS. but despite me seeming rude, I like your vid

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

Try not to get motion sick. LOL =)

[@sarahiguzmann]

PLZ TELL ME THE AUSTIN LOCATION!!!! i will go rn 😭😭

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

The hints are there :)

[@hectornegrete6877]

Honestly I like the idea of the video but I HATE that you do not own a stabilizer cause when you walk around your video makes me dizzy. But other then that I like your video

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

Yes, sorry about that! I'd love to have a stabilizer.

[@ltd2beast]

condom @ 15:20 :)

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

frank rizzo ahhhh man that’s nasty! Haha what an uncomfortable (and un sexy place) to do that in
