Rockhounding Washington State Baker Blue Agates

[@cannelbrae]

Thanks for the tip - I wasn't aware Swift Creek was accessible this time of year. I went up with our 7-year-old - our first time to Swift Creek. He managed to find a small baker blue, a small quartz crystal embedded in a calcite vug, a chunk of gneiss he loved, and possibly jade (green, hard, and semi-translucent). Awesome trip.

Awesome, glad you could make it there from watching the video!

[@MineCache]

That beach is full of surprises. Great job spotting those gems!

[@QuartzCowboy]

Once you spot one they just stand out to ya!

[@SteveE-hg9nd]

I have been up there a half dozen times since the fall. It is one of my favorite areas to go to. Steve

[@QuartzCowboy]

@@SteveE-hg9nd That's what's up, I love the blue's from there and you can't beat the view!

[@SteveErickson-x8g]

Hopefully one day I will run into you. Not on the road but at the Lake. Going out today to find some Rhodonite.

[@QuartzCowboy]

@SteveErickson-x8g That would be cool, Are you going to Mt Higgins?

[@junejones5261]

Nice finds! A beautiful area! Mack needs a doggy bed and a blanket brrrr he was cold.

[@Fishmonger36]

The roads were freezing, and you looked bundled up, but the rocks along the lake didn’t appear to even have frost on them. Sweet!

[@QuartzCowboy]

It was hella cold till I got out on the beach. Great day out there for sure!

[@seandepoppe6716]

[@mattidunno7440]

😂 not sure if this is true but when my kid saw the duck on the gate pole she yelled at the top of her lungs that she dropped it and it rolled under the car 2 weeks ago when we went up last 😂 too funny

[@QuartzCowboy]

Well that duck is riding in my Jeep if she wants it back! 🤠

[@mattidunno7440]

@QuartzCowboy I told her you grabbed it and she said to say she hopes you enjoy it, and thank you for the videos.

[@timking911]

Great content thank you!

[@QuartzCowboy]

Thank you for watching 🤙

[@misscdog]

Love your videos, but Mack makes them. Of my 4 dogs, 8 pounds is the biggest one. Little dogs with brave hearts rule. This is one I could do if I had a day. Thanks for sharing.

[@QuartzCowboy]

Mac is the star of my videos! People recognize him before they recognize me.

[@jcee2259]

Agate is agate . Made deadly by radioactive exposure would worry me.

[@QuartzCowboy]

@@jcee2259 Ya I'm not worried about that! Have a great night!

[@nicholasnewton6775]

Super low

[@QuartzCowboy]

I was way out there!
