hey what's up everybody we're out rockhounding on the north shore of lake superior and
we are at a brand new spot i wasn't even going to come here today but the other spot i was going to
go to had a car parked at it so i went to this spot instead and just got here two minutes ago
and i just found this it's kind of hard to see it's mixing with all these yellow
leaves but you can see right there it's got some limonite staining get out of here oh
look at that beautiful lake superior agate and i wasn't gonna come here what a treat
i just pulled this piece of jasper out of the river
that's really pretty i'll leave this here but i thought i'd show you pretty cool
just spotted this guy right here it looks like it has some bands so i'm hopeful
it's banded it's just not an agate it's a banded chert
that's really pretty though same family just just different but i actually really
like that i'm gonna take that one home i think i just spotted a tiniest little egg of a nodule
yeah just a little itty bitty thing that's cute spotted one right right there
i think it looks like it has some bands oh it is for sure
oh my gosh check this out yeah
oh my gosh what a win that is so beautiful
oh that's a beautiful lake superior agate right there
get out i can't wait to clean this up oh that is so awesome so awesome you know what's funny is
i've been coming out rock counting all summer long and been trying out new spots and most of the time
when i try out these new spots i've been getting skunked and that's why i haven't had that many
rockhounding videos over the summer because the new spots i go to were terrible so today coming to
this spot being a new spot i was actually really nervous so being that we found those two really
beautiful lake superior agates i'm just pumped and it kind of makes it even more sweeter and
makes it okay that we got skunked all summer long because it's like stepping stones to get to here
so i'm pretty happy right now very thankful so let's keep heading up the river and see what
else we can find let's see if we can get even luckier so i found another piece of jasper and
a couple little pieces of chalcedony and i'm thinking right there i think that's another
agate let me just set these here we'll see oh oh oh it is so much more came out of that
get out of here oh it's got a little crystal pocket it's a little geode agate
get out of here the colors on that bands
crystals this is gonna be a good one to get cleaned up as well oh that is so exciting
oh what a good day oh that is awesome so sweet
found myself our first piece of porphyry for the day
it's a little scummy
that's pretty though
so it's been a little ways and we found a small handful we actually turned around
walked up the opposite direction of where we started and right off the bat
you can i don't know if you'll be able to see it
right here oh it's got some water level bands
that's amazing both sides oh that is so cool i love water level banding
it's very thin but it's a beaut let's keep that going on this side of the river
piece of jasper right here
pretty dark believe that i just found this little itty bitty laminate
laminate limonite stain nodule and then right here i think this this might be a nice piece of jasper
hard to tell i'm underneath a tree here but definitely got some jasper going on in there
so i found a few pieces of jasper right there and then right there i'll grab these here and uh look
at them washed off little itty bitty agate right there that's the beautiful coloring on that jasper
found this one too that's pretty cool
that's actually really pretty coloring i'll leave it here i'll think about it on the way back
well i think i spotted another egg it i think it's
right there the orange of it is kind of just barely peeking out
it's definitely in the family it's probably chalcedony and i spotted another one right here
it's awesome
oh it's got some lima knight staining oh it's got another little crystal pocket it's a little
kind of like a partial geode geode sweet well i just spotted this i thought that was pretty
cool it's got that hole in it and i picked up this little agate with these eyes in there
little itty bitty thing and then found this limonite stained pretty sure it's a lymanite
stained nodule it's got that pitting in there and then right there a foot away from this one
another like superior agate with laminite awesome
so pretty much the whole time well we've been out rockhounding i've been looking through rocks in
the river and everything for the majority looks like this it's got this river scum
all over and it's really hard to see but a goods are a little more slick a little more waxy so it
doesn't stick to it and i think we've been finding a lot of them on the bank as well so
we got to come back here before the scum sets in which will be springtime so we'll definitely be
coming back to this spot i think it's a really good spot i just found this guy right here
it's got little bands in the face right here it's kind of hard to see but
that's pretty cool so i'm just getting out of the river but we're not done yet i'm gonna
head back and get all those agates all cleaned up because i want to show you them without any river
scum they are so beautiful i'm so excited how this hunt went let's head back
well i had a ton of fun on that rock hunting adventure and i really hope you did too
if you did leave a thumbs up and leave a comment let me know which
agate was your favorite thank you so much for watching bye
