Tips for How to Rockhound in Heavily Hunted Areas #rockhounding

And in Chopper's triumphant return, he finds a leg.😁 Nice to see he's back on his game. Pretty stuff as always, but that purple and orange and green piece toward the end was truly magnificent.

Great finds and information

Sweet, were you Ben All my life ?

ほとんどがメノウですね❗

You'll always be suprised by what people miss; everyone's different, everyone looks for different stuff, even if its close to carparks/campsites. Also to save you the mouthful- You can call Amyloidal Basalt "Galaxy stone" :) which is what Agate Dad (who hunts the great lakes) calls it. I personally LOVE the opalescent affect in some of those agates/agatised wood.

It looks like a hawk

where do you buy your rock cutting device?

I’ll be heading up to search for unique items of note…thanks for your energies here.

I like your style.

enjoyed seeing the finds😅😊😊😊😊

I really like these amygdaloid basalt

Loved the multicolored "woood" ? I ask seized green/purple piece. Please show all cleaned. Would you cut it or leave as is?

Really like that green piece!

“Not everyone’s a rockhound” one of the best pieces of advice I’ve never thought to give, but have to remind myself of Kim! What a great video! I’ve been away from watching (and creating) rock videos but I’ve always enjoyed yours. Just wanted to let you know you Montana folk are some of my favourite! Big love and keep doin you Kim!

Thanks for the publication links and the great videos. Love your channel 💘

Great hints and info. I pass thru and would like to pick, but don't know where the river accesses are. Your video was so informative. Thanks.

Thank you so much!!

Dang, Montana rock Mom is a cutie!!
Brains and beautie, yes please!!
💘🌻

May I share your video on my rock site on F/B?

What kinda leg was that? Just taught it looked human

That super multi colored one I nominate find of the year

You could have started me into looking for rocks just for myself. There is beauty that matches no other in so many. Ty. Enjoy and happy hunting.

Human bons .!

Damn, Montana has some sweet rocks and minerals. The petrified wood and amygdaloidal basalt is pretty sweet and would be awesome to find.

Chopper is so funny! Always gotta find a leg to gnaw on to be in the spotlight!! Great hunting tips, I agree with you on all of them. Especially getting down lower towards the ground and hunting vehicle tracks, erosion on steep banks, and after floods. That last jasper you found is so unique!! Looks like the color of a peacock feather! 🦚

New too the channel, enjoy your content! Would like to your materials worked up into some sort of finished jewelry!

I'm in San Diego where I collect spherulitic material of Amorphous origin.

Keep up the good work and I will h keep watching! Rock On!

Love the emphasis of needing to be close to the ground. I feel this in my bones! 🤌🏻🙏🏻

Such beautiful rocks that you find! I hope to be up that way and use your tips in a year or two. I’d love to polish some, but will be traveling in my van, and doubt that I’d have enough power 😭

I like using a scoop for those of us that would need an assist if we got down on the ground. Handicapable people are naturally slow so that helps.

Chopper is as good at finding chewie's as you are at finding treasures Both of you come home happy

One of my favourite aspects of rockhounding is finding and exploring new spots. We have very limited public access spots to pick through here in Queensland, Australia and as a result they get hit pretty hard. These tips are awesome for those spots, thanks for sharing!!!!

Amazing I like your rockhounding videos so beautiful stones thanks for sharing 😊

Great tips!!!!!

Thank you for sharing tips on where to look for rocks. Yellowstone River had such beautiful rocks.

Wawwww beatyfull rock's

You are so lucky ...what a beautiful place. Such an array of gorgeous rocks 👍💞

OMG! You never cease to amaze me! Your finds are just extraordinary, and it seems with such great ease. You have a good eye for rockhounding!!!😮

Great finds.
Omg that bright stone♥️ is it jasper, or wood?

I’ve been wondering why no one takes a 4 wheeler rockhounding. I guess they do after all!

Beautiful finds as always. I can't believe I haven't asked you this, do you or have you been hounding on the Madison? If you take 84 out of Four Corners, it'll run you into some awesome gravel bars.

Hi, first time viewing any of your productions. So far, WOW! I’ve spent time in Montana, all in the Kalispell/Flathead Lake area. I get my rock from Lake Huron, have been tumbling them about two years? I recognize many of the rocks you are finding, the ones I see are already beach tumbled, most are not as nice as yours. I’ll subscribe, see you on the next one!

Sweet tips! I drove by a bunch of fishing access sites thinking I prolly wouldn’t find anything. Now I know better! What a great day and glad to see you looking healthy!

Je shume e mir

Thanks for the tips MRM, you rock

WOW!! Great hunt! You found such amazing petrified wood, agates and jaspers on this trip. I love them all, especially the petrified wood with blue-green, yellow and PURPLE😲😳🤯 way too cool and the plume jasper is awesome also! You never know what kind of beautiful rocks you will find. Great video BTW, helpful to everyone, because no matter how long we've been rockhounding we are all still learning new things all of the time. You gave us some really important tips. Thanks for sharing Kim!✌️🤠

Wow. Wow, wow. Another great rock adventure. The rocks were all beautiful, and such colors. It is always fun to see Chopper in his element. Keep the goodness coming. Thanks for sharing this with us. Be happy, safe and stay healthy 😷⚒

Great tips! Fun to watch!

That green jasper which was more like rainbow jasper was beautiful. Thank you km and chopper.😇

So much rock candy. Someone would have to come looking for me I'd likely be stuck under a massage Bag of rocks😀.
Endless amazement and the quest for possibles 👍. Lmao massage? Haha massive!..... Must have been channeling the sunstones I polished. I'm going to get a bathtub full and jump in it😀😀 it's a silky smooth tactile thing. Steel worker hand's and silky stone's. Sensory overload.
