💎Ammolite Gem 💎 Jackpot! HUGE Ammonite DeathBed Discovery

- Look at these COLORS of Ammolite Gemstone! I found a cliffside of the BearPaw Shale Formation that was eroding. I couldn't believe the density of fossils! Not only are there numerous fossils, but they are HUGE! So large I was having to pull the ammonites out in sections. And then.... I rinsed them off and the sun lit them up. Wow. Definitely the most captivating colors I have ever collected in person myself. This is rough ammolite, simply pulled out of a dirty, muddy cliffside, and it blows my mind.
Minus trying to swallow a few frogs and step on a step, Chopper did an outstanding job trying to help me dig out the fossils :). Of course, a lovely Montana Agate was waiting to be found.
Ok, you were right about the video 😮, I'm going to watch it again on the big TV tomorrow.
Awesomeness, those Ammolite colors are sweet..
You're perfectly into the zone for sure.
For the material up high, buy yourself an adjustable retractable pole type stick, about a twelve footer, they will collapse to four feet, easy carry.
Go to Harbor Freight, buy three flat tip screwdrivers, small, medium and large for digging around the fossils in the shale..
I could tell you were totally stoked! 😂
When you find any partial Ammonite pieces without Ammolite, take them home with you, I'll show you a trick to get some beautiful slabs off them for cabbing👌..
This video made me homesick for fossil hounding in Montana!
Brought back so many memories, thank you ..
You're definitely enjoying the fossil hounding as much as the rockhounding you do..
Awesomeness!!!
This video gets a two thumbs up 👍👍..
What a fantastic idea Michael! You've done this before 😉. Yes, I sooooo much enjoy fossil hounding. I could go to this spot every single day and never get tired of it. You never know what you're going to pull out!!! I get super excited...sometimes I can't even get to bed at night after the day. And when I get home I want to tackle the nodules! I bet you found unbelievable stuff here in Montana
@@MontanaRockMom , yes I have.... I'll have to show you the first fossil I ever found, a Scaphite, with rare mineral buildup in the inner chambers..
I've always been blessed when fossil hounding...
@@MontanaRockMomI hope you are doing okay! I've really missed watching you find beautiful rocks. You find the best stuff out of anyone in Montana!
Please respond just to let us know you're okay. We're worried about you. 😢
@@MontanaRockMomI am a fellow Montanan and I like to go rock hounding and am teaching my grandson about it and he is really into the fossilization of things, so I would love for him to experience finding these, with that being said, would you care to share the location so I can take him there?
That place gotta be gorgeous when it rains. So sweet your pooch helping , you know a dog could care less about rocks, beautiful to see his love for you in trying to please you.
Hey miss Kimberly, I just watched your journey video. First of all, I just want you to know how sorry I am for your loss. I could not agree with you more on how spiritual and emotionally supportive nature is to the soul. Everybody has their own point of view, but I truly believe we become more in tune when we take the time to enjoy what God has created for us. Rockhounding has been more to me than the joy of beautiful Rocks and minerals as well. Peace and soul cleansing. Take it in girl friend. Peace be the journey. Your Colorado Rockhound, Vinny.
Montana is on my to do list for this summer. Looks fun and mineral rich. Save some Agates for me. Your Colorado Rockhound.
I’m so jelly right now! Those are some nice Ammolite specimens. Good job Kimberly. Fun to watch. Chopper is such a dedicated trooper. You can tell he loves his mommy. ROCK ON FOR SURE.
Wonderful! You have the best assistant ever. Such a sweetie! I can't believe all the ammolite you found. What a great spot. I'm glad you're being careful and watching out for yourself. I'd love to see a video of what you do with all that ammolite.
Beautiful!!! Chopper is a very good helper. 😊❤🐶
Kim it is so good to see you back out. Just love the videos and you and chopper. ❤❤
Thanks so much
I most definitely would love to see the final product of you getting those cleaned up so that we can see them in their beauty
Oh my goodness, that was AWESOME!! That was like winning the lottery 😍! But Kim, you need some gloves! Ammolite is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing another adventure with us 😊
Wow what beautiful pieces! So nice that chopper wants to "help"
You all in Montana are freaking blessed with cool rocks 😆
Yeah we are. What a magnificent state this is...huge variety of rocks, fossils and gems... something for everyone
Thank you for pointing out the hazards of digging into those cliff faces. Rock hounding is so much fun, but be safe.
Sutures ❤❤❤❤ Absolutely love the patterns that are created in the variety of specimens.
You found the jackpot. Yippi! I'm glad you couldn't see me stopping the screen several time so I could clean off my drool. You have some beautiful pieces. Can't wait to see them cleaned up. Woof to chopper!!!! Great choice, no matter how tempting that cliff was. Be happy, SAFE and stay healthy. 😷⚒
Those finds...oh my goodness! When you get them "prepped" please share the how and results. Really enjoyed this video.
You're a great hostess... I'm not a Rockhound but, your attitude and passion for your fossils and minerals are a Joy to watch.. Be Blessed and always stay safe 🌹🙏....
Wow, thank you!
Finally! Someone says out loud, what I have been thinking…sutures are so amazing.
Gorgeous fossils and agate. Chopper was such a helper, but he scared me a little bit with the snake. 😮
Your poor hands, you may need to bring a brush next time. Your friend Theo would go nuts at that place.
Yes he would!
It is Awesome to see a BEAUTIFUL Rock hound like your self, getting the hands dirty,
So dirty!!! Always covered in mud and mosquito spray, lol
She is a lovely lady. Very strong too.
Wow so much ammolite and so beautiful. The one Montana agate was awesome too.
you were so right...captivating is the operative word. So happy for your find!!!👍😀 Thanks for sharing it all, MRM
Shhh ...... don't tell Theo!!
🤣
Oh heck Theo could help get them out!!!
He'd be struggling more than me with a heavier bag.
@@MontanaRockMom - oh for sure! 🤭🤭
@@MontanaRockMomhahaha that’s true;)
Awww chopper so cute trying to dig for u lol
Just love your videos, big fan!
The less direct sunlight and exposure to the air retains the blue's which can fade, a handy bottle of crazy glue can fix the exposed shell and save the color. Love your work. Thanks
Chopper is a real rock hound!
Met Theo @Blgs Rock Show had a blast & now cutting some of my new found treasures. At some point hope to also meet you & share some experience/cutting and shortcuts, tips. Love the oceanic history of Mt. too. Your infectious 'ROX POX' is truly appreciated by a lot of us tubers, thank you

Thank you- look forward to meeting you as well! Have fun cutting your new treasures
OMG! That was close! Was that a Python? OMG. I’m glad you guy’s are okay 👍. Cool stuff miss Kimberly. Keep the videos Comming. I’ll wait. Your fellow Colorado Rockhound.
Love to you my Colorado friend
These are Amazing. Especially the one chopper helped you dig out. So colorful!! Enjoy you videos so much.
I’m going to make it to Montana some day. For now it’s Florida fossils for me.
So AWESOME!! This is a bucket list find for me.....hopefully someday. Please show us your prep on these. I want to see the final product, but am just as interested in the work to get there! Can't wait for next time. I anticipate EVERY video you do!
I was familiar with ammonites, because we have some small formations here in Mississippi that contain them, but ammolites were new to me prior to a couple of months ago. I've watched a few videos from Canada where they were using cyanoacrylate to stabilize the fossils. Absolutely beautiful stuff! ♥
What amazing finds😅 you had today. I’d like to see how you clean them up and polish them. Just one thing, I couldn’t tell if your dog had a harness on or just a collar. I don’t have a problem with you hanging on and he helping pull you up the hill, but pulling on the collar against his throat can cause damage, unless you’re using a harness. I can tell you love your dog, so if it wasn’t a harness, I’d spend a little money and get one for him and feel more comfortable having him help you up the cliffside.♥️
Spectacular finds! Way to go, MRM!
I haven't seen any of your videos lately but they are always good
And you are as good looking as ever!!!
Amazing!!!! Great episode!!!!!
Beautiful colours. Cheers from East Coast, Canada.
Good Lord, I’d be in heaven. Like, Lose my mind, heaven. Thanks for sharing and love your knowledge
So pretty, 💞 like Opals 👍
Great video 😊 never know what you will find,keep up the great work , I am a rock hounder for many years and still look down .Harry.Your dog Chopper is great.
Chopper thought that one looked like a pretty fancy stick when you were rinsing it off. 😂
Those colors are just AMAZING! The MOST BEAUTIFUL rainbow of colors I’ve ever seen in a rock!
Chopper is awesome, the finds are cool too
I live in West Virginia. There are layers here that is similar to what you are talking about, the dark kinda iron like rocks. I have found fern fossils here. But it is like a clay still. So it is even more fragile. What you are finding is so stunning. I would not want to ever leave! It is so exciting watching you find these. Thank you for sharing this experience!!!!
Outstanding finds ❤ just absolutely beautiful. I run from snakes also.. lol.. 😢
🐍. Yuck.
Awesome hunt. Really cool finds.
* WOW ~ Chopper had me gasping when he tried to help you.. Did he take off part of the cover? It is truly amazing.. Wish there were a way to get at the fossil way up there.. You need a ladder! So Lovely..
You definitely were in the right spot. Some beautiful colors gonna be coming off those stones Yemenites in the Beccaulite oh my 😅😅😅😅😅
beautiful, and i liked your video too!
What a great adventure first thing in the am. 😊 can't wait to see you process your treasure.
Such gorgeous fossils! They look so fragile! Nice job finding them! 😊
Oh my gosh girl! ❤❤❤
Ваши находки великолепны ! Удачи и новых интересных окаменелостей !!! 👍😉
Awesome! Those are cool finds. I wonder if Theo has ever been there before..I know he loves those fossils!
What a great video!!! ❤❤❤❤❤ This is so cool for you to take us along on this adventure!! Pleaaaasseee do a video with Theo here!!! Chopper & Floyd can hang out with the chopper camera on 📹 😂 it would be so epic!!!! Love your videos so much!
Will do!
Very cool.
Thank you!
You are awesome👏💎💖💖💖
pretty!!! rocks are too ! stay bright !
Amonite looks so much like labradorite! Amazingly beautiful stones!!
Sweet finds!
Thanks!
Really cool. Can't wait to see them prepared!
Yeikes with the snakes. Glad you both came out safe. Ammonite is so pretty love it when its more the blues and greens and purples. But any way its super cool. Im going to go looking for shale deposits here. Iv seen them around eroding out of the sides of the valleys. Hope i find some pretty stuff myself.
Thank you for taking the time to make the video Kim. And i hope when you go back to the spot the piece you spotted up high has eroded out for you.
I love your walk in the water with doggie. It was amazing when you submerged the big rock/ammolite in the water and all the colors popped. ( I just subscribed.)
Some of that is thick enough to sand through that white bleached shell and get to the color. But since it's been so weathered it may also be rather fragile!:) Have fun! So where could I go to find this? I live in Alberta:) I love that baqulite too. Take a little broom and gloves with you:) will be much easier on those hands!:) I thought the bear paw region was all under protection due to the fossil content, nice to see one can rock hound in areas:) cute little baby garter snake...harmless:)Cheers!
Wow! It amazes me that you can spot things when everything is the same gray color! You've found such beautiful things! All the time!
a pleasant find. you are always lucky friend.
Great finds ammolites are so rare...
Beautiful ammolite🩵🩵🩵
Watch out for them snakes!
Chopper is a really good guard dog!
Beautiful sharing 😊
I love you so much ~~
montana rock mom !!!❤
Thank you 😊 😍💙🩵💛💚
Stunning!! ✌️🫶😃
Contrats young lady!
Beautiful ❤❤
It's exciting to just watch you! Thanks for filming!
Amazing video!! Thanks for sharing!!
Great video! I ‘m so glad Chopper is there and no bears. I look forward to you going back….maybe with some help to carry stuff. Til then!
Just stumbled upon this Kimberly, what a perfect little discovery for you and Chopper. Very well presented too, ur pretty amazing!
U can use a stick to hit on the grasses to scare any snake away before walking ahead 🤣🤣 Awesome finds👍👍👍
You find so many beautiful things. I just started looking for agates in Western Kentucky where I live. I have found a few, but I don't think we have very many this far in Western Kentucky. Yours are beautiful. Love your video's.
Thanks for such a great video on these special fossils!!
The Best Awesomeness! ❤️❤️ Thanks for sharing❣️
really enjoyed this - thanks!
Dog is like let me put some snot on there for ya.
good find amonite❤
Very awesome finds. Thank you for sharing your adventures.
So pretty!
Beautiful.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ just a hint.
Use a stick as you go through the grass.
I noticed a real good walking stick you stepped over.
At the beginning as you are talking about snakes.
Just a suggestion.
We love you.❤️💯
You are absolutely right...I don't know why I didn't pick a stick up!
Very beautiful stones
Here from theos live !!!! Sending love ❤
Congrats on the great finds! I sure hope we get to see you process these. 🌟🙌🤩
Pup was helping you look at rocks.....😂
Hi Kim, very pretty amnolite
Get Chopper a sled dog harness!!! Can't wait to see the specimens all cleaned up
Following you up from Alberta Canada.
Beautiful colors, maybe next year I will be coming from Georgia out to Montana to do some rock hounding, on my bucket list, love watching you and Chopper getting the job done, thanks for sharing, until next time take care
Gorgeous haul. ❤
Those are amazing!
Old Disabled House Bound Dusty Rusty Rockhound here: That is really something!
Beautiful fossils! Love how Copper was trying to dive for rocks for you❤
Amazeballs! Also that haircut looks super cute on you! :D
Stomping only alerts rattlesnakes to your presence- it does not scare them into not biting you! In fact it prepares them! Where as you might not get bit walking by but by stomping you will surely get bit if one is there!AND the snake you did encounter was a harmless garter snake!
I totally see why you love this stuff so much ❤❤❤❤❤
