Thanks for hanging out with us today! Y’all go and check this site out and dig up some selenite crystals for yourself! Just remember to please fill in your holes and leave no trash! It would be great for this location to remain open for the generations!
Yall ended up with loads of them. Love Mother Earth
Heart shaped stuff is awesome! 🎼don’t go breaking my heart ❤️
That’s awesome! I’ve been following your series for a while now and I love it! I actually live like 30 minutes away from this location and so I think I might just pay it a visit!
Very interesting video. Thank you !
It’s sad that collectors don’t leave it like you found it. (- fill in your holes you dig out please)!
Yes, it breaks my heart when people litter......
I'm an old disabled house bound dusty rusty rock hound. I thirst for the thrill of the hunt, the dirt, the rock, and the nature that goes with it.
These videos are like a cool drink of spring water for my soul.
Rock on!
All us hounds need to taste the living waters from time to time 💎💜
Makes me happy you are right here with us as we explore the elements ✨
Send me a message on Facebook if you’re there!?
Hi Kelly! Would love to hear your stories of rock-hounding
From Australia 👍
Your buddy Will in the video did a great job getting people together a few weeks ago to help clean up the site. Thanks for spreading the word regarding leaving no trace.
Yes we were in a rush to get out of town but would like to do a get together or a meet up for everyone to go out one day and fill-in a bunch of the holes there are already there.
Yes Will is awesome, he did great job I heard too!
@@TheCrystalCollector there are a few sites in the region that bad actors have trashed.
Thank you for being an advocate and protecting this amazing place
Thank you, yes I didn’t want to go on and on about filling in the holes but it’s super important to keep having permission which is really barely there from what I understand
what are you kidding? People don't care about the holes we care about protecting the amazing place. jesus
That's amazing to dig out those selenite crystals, I have only seen it in wands. It's unbelievable that People want all the pleasure, but don't want to tidy up after them. They're only making it bad for others. Cool crystals bryan
No. stop stealing the rocks.
Your enthusiasm is so contagious. Ty for all you do.
How beautiful is this mineral? How beautiful is this? It's so beautiful that I am fascinated by the color, the shape is beautiful.
Yes I agree so beautiful!
I am in awe of the texture of that clay, it looks so pure, like I can sculpt with it right out of the ground or use it as a face mask. I’ve never seen selenite in that shape before either. Very interesting!
unsuspecting person: this looks like a great place to trod barefoot in the mud
the mud: hehehe I gots me some razors.
You have no idea how accurate that is! Your fingers get shredded without gloves
I am from Salt Lake City new to rockhounding and hope to make it out to this location soon, I do have to say though I am embarrassed that we have such a treasure here that some want what it offers but don’t care enough to do something so simple as full in the holes you dig, how hard can it be… please take care of what we have here!
That clay is more expensive than the crystals. Beauty industry is selling that for good money in small amounts. That clay și good for skin problems, joints, prevents further illnesses by making your imune system strong.
Yes you’re probably right, these crystals aren’t worth much but they are a lot of fun today! Yeah who knows what’s in this clay, with all of the salt deposits in gypsum etc
I was thinking the same thing. Like I’d go there and grab some crystals but I’d take a jar or two of that clay as well
I’m literally such a huge fan of yours
That’s awesome, thanks for watching the videos and hanging out! Come out to one of our public digs one of these days, have one coming up in Missouri! Check Facebook
Oh! Cool! where in Missouri? My friend Barb lives in Missouri, Near Big Springs Scenic Riverways, I lived there for a year as a youngster!
I don't know how you do it, but you consistently amaze me with your videos. One after the next, your videos introduce us to stellar sites and unique finds. Its an amazing world around us, and your channel depicts just that. Keep on it- You got an amazing life!!!
THANK YOU
Awe, a crystal heart! The nephew is always finding heart crystals! I love things that are naturally in the shape of a heart ❤🥰😍😘😻
Love the heart one. Dillion needs to mount that.
Loved the cross one too!
What fun! You find the crystals by playing in the mud. I think young kids would love it too. 👍🏻😊
Matrix at the end so adorable 🥰
I’ve been watching your adventures for well over 3 years now. You never disappoint with all the natural beauty you reveal to you subscribers. I love this channel, it’s a bird’s eye view into such an amazing world. I wish I could find a site to dig at in Alabama. For now I’ll live vicariously through the adventures between you and Dylan. Rock on guys!!!
Looking for Love, Bryan? I am here! In Sweden!! I just love watching your funny & interesting videos. You wear my favorite color Aquamarine and you have a dog, oh boy!!!!!-I was collecting rose quartz in Finland with my dear father when I was about 4-5 years old and I have been collecting minerals ever since. I have quartz crystals under my mattress and I keep some in my water pitcher, too. (I am certified crystal healer.) I dream about finding huge, beautifull crystals. -So, I am your girl, Bryan! Let´s at least meet in a dream.....could be nice!? Another thing: I bet that Utah clay is a healing clay! My grandfather had similar clay and he healed eczema with it!
We found this spot last year by accident...what a lovely place! :D
Your shows are bringing me such joy!!! Pretty much housebound these days but loving the treasures you’re unearthing!!! Thank you 💖
Thank you so much for watching and enjoying the show!
Please send some of these to the ebay store or in the weekly fb sale. I want to buy for sure. Very very cool.
This place is always such a good time, and so much material as long as we take care of it!
🙀 that "stealth bomber" rocks. so does the little rockhound🤗
Try shining a uv light on it, around the clay inclusions it flouresces a light green. Really cool to see!
Wielkie dzięki za kolejną wspaniałą ucztę dla ducha. Pozdrawiam z Polski (Poland)
I love watching you and your "mini me" digging and playing in the mud! LOL
Thank you so much for posting your videos. I just love watching them. I am in Colorado. My son and myself are planning a trip to Holbrook, Arizona for digging petrified wood, we can hit up this location on our way back home. Also considering Apache teardrops. You have provided so many locations for my mom and son road trip. Thank you again for posting. I love your channel and watch all the time.
That is so awesome! I’m glad I can be of service to these locations, I will continue to promote as many locations as long as this CZcams channel keeps going! Thanks for watching
Selenite is awesome. It frustrates me when others take advantage of a kindness of the owners. I like the diamond shapes. The "T" intersecting one amazing. The airplane ✈ one, now I have too many favorites...
Matrix you are the coolest 😎 🐶.
It’s a dream to go crystal digging and hiking heck with Bora Bora
Let’s go dig hour glass selenite in Jet Oklahoma. Thank you for sharing this spot!
Woowwww... Beautiful my friend
My friend in Crawford, Ga who has quartz formations all over his yard and now found some smoky quartz. You should join me in digging in his yard this fall.
I would love to, I will be back that way around early early December. That usually when I dig the Carolinas, December maybe even January if the weather doesn’t get too cold. Yes that would be really cool let me know, send me a message on Facebook if you’re there
@@TheCrystalCollector how do I find you on Facebook?
Incredible that these come right out of the ground. Never ending
Love the heart shaped one! Want to sell it! I collect heart shaped rocks! That place looks awesome! Can’t wait to see you in Missouri!
i bought 2 pieces of these from a small business, i love them so much
Love your show and you
Thanks so much! 🙌✨💎
🌞❤Donna Summer sums it up! ..... 🌻💃🎼 Love to Love ya baby!!! ❤😄🌹🐦🐦🐦
Amazing! And thank you for really hammering the point about filling in your holes!!!! We've lost access to far too many sites because people are lazy and refuse to fill in their holes. Let's keep these sites open for everyone and be responsible!
🙌💜🙌
Fill in Your Holes People!!!! “Whattttttttttt!?!?”
✨🙌✨🙌💜
Dirty dirty FUN!!! ❤🌞🐦🎼💃WOOOOOOOOHOOOOO!!!
It’s kind of like metal detecting, FILL IN YOUR HOLES!! Don’t give the hobby a bad name by leaving holes. Those crystals are beautiful! I hope future crystal diggers will fill in their holes so that place will stay open to dig.
What a great day you and Dylan had and the other Diggers with their sports lol. Terry said as I dislike mud that's not the place for me lol but the crystals look so lovely when they are clean I think I wouldn't have worried when I was younger plus the gloves would keep my hands relatively clean lol. I totally agree that people should refill their holes, it's a beautiful place and the holes dont take long to fill, unless of course they are either not thinking or just plain lazy. I was surprised how thick some of the crystals are and the pieces that are joined, my favourite was the one that looks like a plane, I would keep that one Bryan and add it to your collection. Take care and stay safe please my friends God bless you all love and hugs to you Matrix and Dylan Mary-Ellen UK
Yeah this is a really fun spot, but you have to find that really thick mud, that’s what the crystals grow in. I agree, if people don’t continue to fill in the holes, they might shut this location down for good, let’s hope not! Always great to hear from you!
Bryan. Thanks for being us to all these amazing places. So awesome!!! Going to check out your store too!!! Beautiful crystals!!! Your videos bring a smile always! Big hug!!
Awesome awesome adventure wow magnificent crystals yup fill the holes in just like metal detecting etc thank u
Very awesome finds! Those selenite crystals look pretty cool under UV light too.
"What".... its truly amazing
Amazing 1st time to see this kind..thanks for sharing..allways put the earth back like you found it. Thank you❤👍👏👏
OMG ITS PERFECT ITS A LUCK FOR YOU OMGG ITS LOOKING LIKE SMOKY QUARTZ LITTLE BIT LOVE YOUR VIDEOS😍😍😍😍😍
I have seen some of earth's most beautiful things through you
Thanks so much for your comment, keeps me going and give me inspiration
That clay is amazing
Love those big ones!
Our Great Salt Lake is shrinking really bad. I had no idea we had these here. It will be fun to go check it out.
The short clip of Matrix really cracked me up laughing 😂 Great location and awesome video Brian!
Holy Gypsum Bryan, nice Selenite crystals 🐶👍🏻
Selenite is such cool!
The great salt plains in Oklahoma is a lot like this! At first I thought that's where you were, but then I saw that the video said Utah. Oklahoma makes very similar selenite crystals, but it's the only place in the world that makes hourglass selenite! I found a whole bucket full of crystals when I went
Awesome that's amazing. What an awesome place. 👍
Awesome! First one in the chat! U rock Crystal collecter thanks buddy!
Love to see Matrix kicking back 💕
If you like washboard roads you'll love Aussie outback roads 🤣🤣👍
😆
I don't think there is a bad place to find those crystals at that location. I have never seen definite come out in that flat of a shape before. I have definite sticks I use when welding to Mark the steel, but nothing like this! Thanks Bryan for showing me another form of crystal.
I'd love to see those all cleaned up!
God bless you, Bryan! I love your passion and your work. I learn so much from you! Thank you for being such an inspiring teacher. Much love, LeeAnn
Wow, fantastic dig. It’s so incredible what’s just under the surface.
💖 hello your living your dream, the best job ever💖 I love your videos 💖
Just don't soak it for an extensive amount of time, they start to fall apart. Cleaning with water is fine though, just don't soak!
Very cool. These are super cool 😎 way bigger than the few pieces of little hourglass shards I have.
Thankfully even if people don't fill in the holes, a couple rain storms level things back down pretty good.
Thanks so much! Looks like a fun place to look for crystals. Getting there might be another story.
Look at that!!
That's frickin AWESOME!!!
I always enjoy the both of you guys and your adventures.. ♥️
are they brittle or hard like stone? amazing either way. love these videos.💎
Yes they are actually very brittle, most of all the bigger ones that I ended up collecting broke down where they were at fracture points. But they are super fun to dig!
Thank you for mentioning the importance of filling your holes back in! I have not yet tried this location, I need to get out there some time.
Discovered your channel yesterday, and as a huge gem/rock enthusiast these videos are awesome! (and as a Utahn, I happen to quite like the ones in Utah too)
Beautiful. I live in Utah, and I’ve never seen those before.
Awesome, I didn't know we could actually fish in the GSL. 👌
Couldn’t help but to laugh at the ball plopping on the ground lmfao
Awesome video thanks.
Love the music on the intro today.
I love your videos keep it up!
Beautiful. Your Great Salt Lake reminds me of our Dead Sea. Thanks for these videos. ❤️🙏
Unsurprising since the Dead Sea is one of the few bodies of water that is saltier than our Great Salt Lake. I would love to see the Dead Sea and collect around it some day. Glad you enjoyed the video, I had a good time showing them the ropes.
Oh well I bet there is some resemblance, y’all might have some of these crystals to where it is very shallow and dried up
Man, I was there in the spiral jetty a few years ago plugging an abandoned oil well that was spewing tar everywhere. I wish I would have known this was right there!
This was one of the coolest videos!
Nice cristal in Sith wat black . Beatyful
Is fantastic!!!!
I was totally there this past june, i got some amazing pieces
That’s so freakin cool & fun! Love it!
I’m 30 mins out heading over 😂🔥
the place you are look amazing and so pure
✨🙏💜💜🙏💎
Cool. 👍🏻👍🏻
Nice! Weird find!
Amazing!!!
Those selenite check on the microscope,I am sure it look 👀 wonderful,I love gems,my dream is to build a temple from 💎
Very interesting... I've been using satellite images to find other areas this might occur naturally. Dry watering holes seem like they would make gypsum too.
So, there is a table of evaporate minerals and the amount of seawater it takes before minerals precipitate out. Table salt fairly easily precipitates with very little water evaporated. Gypsum takes significantly more and limestone takes the most. Look for an evaporation table online
Holy crap they look like dragon scales lol beautiful
let's go I'm excited 😊
them are superkool , thanx for sharing
Hmmm i thought selenite is deep in the Cave. Maybe black and white tourmaline . selenite is Milky and needlelike feldsparpar. Usually you find them with Kyanite . selenite and kyanite are blades. That looks more like Tibetan Quartz with mica. Especially in Brazil
If you walk to the waters edge you can see salt crystal formations too.
Hahaha welcome to my home that road is a suspension tester forsure!
