Do I need a Vehicle with high ground clearance to get here?

I live in Canada rip

@@keberharkeberhar9067 depending where in Canada it can be pretty darn good! British Columbia Canada for example is famous for nephrite Jade. But I'm sure everywhere there has something!

The world is good but the government makes it worse. There’s places I wanted to go metal detecting for fun and I found out recreation areas ban metal detecting. It’s a huge desert area and now you can just hike or drive a road. Idk why they did that except to close it down to potential mining etc without labeling it as wilderness.

I was also upset cause there was a beautiful rock hound site I wanted to visit but it’s in that recreation area and it may now be illegal idk. The federal government and politicians term of recreation isn’t really recreational at all.

I wish non profits existed or states would actually file rockhounding permits to keep areas open to rock hounders as environmentalists literally are closing down rock hounding sites in Utah. They’re also closing down camping sites to make a buffer zone to the wilderness area over by price. It’s crazy cause wilderness areas in states east of Colorado doesn’t have buffer zones.

I'm glad you made it out there and had some good finds!

Hi there 😀 I hunt for Geodes in the Warsaw formation, it's in Iowa and Illinois . Between Burlington and Keokuk IOWA AND Nauvoo, Illinois and Hamilton/Warsaw IL. My sister and I find solid stuff and even more with awesome crystals quartz and chalcedony, and fossils!

I forgot to tell you how awesome you are!!!

Ha, why are you trying to make me look even more weird?

@@CurrentlyRockhounding Weird is different and different stands out...Ive got a method to my madness ^^

@@CurrentlyRockhounding it looks like you replied to my comment, not quite sure... But if it was me ???

Well worth the visit.

Thank you so much! Also what is this wall you look at all day? I think they can all be really pretty!

Thank you for coming to watch!

It's a great place.

Its a really nice location to visit.

Oh its 100% worth the visit.

Thank you for coming to watch! :)

Thank you! I'm just trying to share what I learn. Always a work in progress. :)

I'm glad you liked it.

You can also find them all up on the website!

Heck yeah! You will love it!

I'm glad you liked it.

Be sure to note which types you want to find. As he mentioned site 2 in all the books has lots of whole small geodes but the other location has some very large pieces and you can dig into the exposed clay layers to get some nice ones at either site. I had done both surface hunting and digging about 8 years ago and got my best at site 2 digging a hole.

Agreed, I do think its a location you need more than one day at if you really want to enjoy it.

It's 100% worth the visit.

It's a great location.

I'm glad you liked it.

Exactly! Utah is awesome!

I'm glad you like it.

Agreed.

Thank you!

Oh its a very worth it location to visit.

Oh yeah! It's a really good location and next time we do plan on spending more time in the area.

Thank you! That feels good to hear.

Thank you!

Thank you! :)

Thank you, I try to do these locations justice.

Thank you, I try to make them enjoyable to watch.

Utah is an amazing place. If you go to the website there's UV slide comparison images up which are really nice to see. Maybe someday you can return out west.

I feel for ya Bro!

@@CurrentlyRockhounding going to check out the site in the morning!

Oh my gosh, Utah is a killer state to go rockhounding in.

Were you stationed at Dugway?

No I was on TDY there, temporary duty for Army Nuclear Biological Chemical testing. Testing new chemical decon equipment.

@@CurrentlyRockhounding but had alot of free time, could have been looking for rocks:)

Thank you!

I'm glad you liked it!

I'm itching to go back.

I'm glad you liked it.

It really can be a challenge at times when filming.

That's nice to hear! :)

Welcome!

Wind was the theme of the Utah trip. :)

Sara's the real rockhound, I'm just the camera man.

@@CurrentlyRockhounding 😁🤠😉

Do it! I think its a really good location.

It's a lovely location.

Agreed!

Thank you!

Utah is awesome for sure.

It's a nice locations.

I would highly suggest it.

Dang that's a great find!!!

@@CurrentlyRockhounding Thank you, I found it in the road, out of all places. Had my son dig it up because I had a broken foot and couldn’t walk, but it wasn’t going to stop me from getting my geodes!😂

Do it!

Do you still go out and look for rocks? We do love it! :)

I don't as much as I would like. My husband passed away and my partner, so that is that. But I hope to find a new friend to go with, or friends🙂

Utah is amazing and I have much more cool Utah videos to come.

I appreciate it, I really do love this stuff.

That is only a very small portion of Utah you are seeing in the video. The mountains are the most beautiful things here.

@@davidault7118 Thanks, I was hoping to go mountain biking at Moab one day, so I watched a lot of videos for it. I guess I'm just so used to being around civilization that when I see a place like that it seems so otherworldly. I saw a photo the day after CR posted this video of a geode from Dugway that was extraordinary, so it might be worth the trip.

We loved the Utah trip and we got many more locations to go!

DO it!

Oh yeah!!!

It's a really good location to visit.

Utah is amazing.

Utah is amazing for rockhounding.

Thank you for coming by to watch!

It really is a killer location. We didn't make it to Topaz Mountain, but maybe we will next year. How did you do there?

@@CurrentlyRockhounding I loved your video road trip portion, we must of crossed paths. We started at Topaz first, didn’t do the pay to dig, so didn’t find much on our own. Still a nice hike up the mountain, found a very small topaz and small amethyst crystals. Very hard rock to dig in! Anyways your video brought back my day trip through there. We took the same road pass that pony express building and then a very obscure road straight north to Dugway, til we ran into a fence lol 😂 finally found a paved road and made it back to the 80…. Definitely out in the middle of nowhere. Quite the day, but loved the adventure. Sorry for the long reply 🤪

Hahaha yeah that's something you gotta stay on top of when you do this kind of driving.

It's a really interesting location, and I love the diversity of material that can be found here.

It was great.

Oh if you plan on passing though Utah I got many more places coming there for you to visit.

@@CurrentlyRockhounding nice! Do you have them listed on your website? I grew up in Colorado so all of those southern states are fairly familiar to me...if only I had been a rockhound back then! 😂 Time to revisit a lot of places

@@sarahskillen8421They will be listed when the video goes up.

Nice! They cut really well.

Thank you!

We did make it down there and spent some time driving around hitting locations, unfortunately it was a little tight and hard to plan with other, we do plan on coming back next year for a more relaxed trip.

@@CurrentlyRockhounding Just let me know when you plan to come!

There's some good locations out there from what I have seen and heard from others.

Its a really good location to visit.

Oh we plan on going back in the future. :)

That area really calls to me, its a place I could see myself living. I see there's cheap house for sale in Delta Utah!

@@CurrentlyRockhounding it really is a great area to live in. I love it in Utah. And Delta is in a great spot for lots of rock hounding!!

Oh its so a worth it spot.

Oh man, that sounds like a lovely place to be stationed.

It's actually a little scary lots of testing stuff going on there can't really say what all kinds but it's a place you really need to be well informed on Hazmat stuff.

Well that's good to know! I know that ads can be annoying at times but it really does help the channel out.

Its a great state to visit.

@@CurrentlyRockhounding I drive through it often in a big truck which is not fun due to the traffic there. I'd love to spend time there instead with visiting and exploring around. Surprised that I haven't crashed yet looking at the geology and roadcuts while driving along! 😄

Its a killer location for when you do visit.
