Rock Hounding & Shelling Sunset Beach, Cape May, New Jersey in February! R.I.P. - Higbee Beach Crate
Here's some video from February when we did a day trip to Cape May, New Jersey to rockhound, shell and look for sea glass on Sunset Beach. We also have video evidence that the replenishing of Higbee Beach is the cause for the World Famous Higbee Beach Crate getting wrecked. Now it's just a pile of timbers :(

Video from March when we explored an old farm's glass dump. Made a few good milk and soda finds among the hundreds and hundreds of old whiskey and gin bottles. It wasn't a glass dump so much as it was a part of the woods where the old farmer tossed his bottles. Check out what we found!

Recently we visited Sunset Beach in Cape May, New Jersey to see the Ghost Tracks!

    Hello from Chester County, pa. I want to take my son out searching for cool rocks but I also dont want to get into trouble taking or breaking rocks. Do you have any tips or links regarding what we can and cant do?

    • @dirtsandandrocks
      @dirtsandandrocks Před 4 měsíci

      @yahwhay - Here are a few tips - Stay off private property unless you get the owner's permission. You can't take anything from any National Park, so Valley Forge is off limits even though the rockhounding there is pretty good (look, but DON'T take). State parks, township parks and waterways are you're best choice for rockhounding. We try to be very selective and only take a few samples (taking too much gets heavy anyway). If you have access to a spot and can make return trips, you can even return samples you've photographed and checked out already, but make sure it goes back where you found it and not someplace else (otherwise you're making a mess for future rockhounders) . Finally, try carrying out a bucket of trash while you're out collecting. There's never any shortage of trash practically anywhere you go. Waterways are the worst in my opinion which is pretty sad. Thanks for watching - Paul

    I have dug mineral hill for 9 years my friend who is a geologist believes the peg that produced all this is connected some how to smedley where you fine the green beryl. I believe there are a bunch of peg out crops around delco. Mineral hill you will find what I be sunstone to be embedded in the moonstone and amazonite, but it needs to be tested. There is an area where the moonstone bleeds out of the side again by the 1000s, not all is moonstone but i usually fill a large bag with potienial pieces , I think you get everything correct, I have cabbed about 100 pieces of amazonite and moonstone and maybe 5 sunstones they are pretty rare, I even cabbed what looks to be a sunstone mixed with blue moonstone.

    The bottles craze is so big broken bottles are half price in the antique malls and lip chips and cracks don't matter anymore. One CZcams/eBay site just sells broken and chipped bottles. The slicks also sell for five to ten people are using them in their towns the built on their property like the gas station or the general store. The broken shards of the uranium glass are high dollar 25 a lbs for crushing to dust and putting in paint. The other color shards are being sold for mosaics and color pottery shards all mosic art work. The old glass was made with better materials that's why the old Pyrex and fire king and anchor Hocking kitchen ware is valuable it's still not broken but all the new glass breaks right away. Sorry for going on.

    I'm from Western Pa and have heard we have silver in my area. But on my hikes I do see all kinds of crazy looking stones. Makes me want a tumbler lol

    What was that green stone called that the Mrs says you find in Media?

      There's a spot outside of Media, PA where you can collect samples of that green flaky mineral called Actinolite. You can find all kinds of information about it on-line. Thanks for watching - Paul

    Can you sell them???

      @shellyfoster7319 - I don't think they have much value other then being an interesting different mineral to collect. We mainly just collect cool samples for our collection. Thanks very much for watching and the comments. Please check back again sometime - Paul

    Do you cut them. Can you chisel them out????

    • @dirtsandandrocks

      @shellyfoster7319 - No, we don't cut them. They really aren't "gem quality" stones. The mining operation from a hundred years ago used the garnets mixed with sand to make really abrasive sandpaper that could polish other stone products like marble and granite, so even they weren't finding much "gem quality" material
