I dont know if anyone mentioned this, but the "coral" is actually a type of worm that burrows into drifting wood. The jasperized wood you found was actually filled with worm holes known as toledo wood.
You said you might have an epic day. Well... it looks like you did. From the multicolored jaspers, to the boytroidal agates to the jasperized petrified wood, it just kept getting better and better. Send a thank you to chopper for keeping you safe. I never knew how you always found the best rocks. Then it dawned on me, your the "Rock Mom" and you just call out to your children and they come. Thanks for the epic tag along. Be happy, safe and stay healthy 😷⚒ Woof!
Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Kim, these specimens are so beautiful...I'm sitting here with my mouth watering ....like Homer Simpson looking at a can of Duff's. 😅
Wow Kim, that little colorful agate was gorgeous! Man, the colors and the banding are insane! What a killer find! And that pet wood the jasperized one, was amazing! So colorful! And the green one! Wow! And that chunker of agatized wood! Wow! That brecciated jasper with hematite was really nice! The pattern was awesome! Pretty carnelian agate too! And that deep dark red agate was just amazing! Nice coral fossil! And that broken piece of agate with the lines was nice. The agate after that with the fortifications banding was amazing! Chopper is so much fun! So cute! Nice cutter too! And all the rest! Wow Kim! What a really awesome day! And your agate of the day, really was the agate of the day! Successful hunt for sure! Thanks Kim!
I really like the occasional birdsong in the background. Maybe a housefinch? All the natural sounds are so much better than music. The water drip and splash, the cricket, the birds, the gravel crunching. Your voice ooo-ing and aww-ing... Oh yeah, the rocks are cool too.
Montana agates are amazing...I'm hunting occasionally in Northern Illinois Mississippi river...getting some lake superior agates on a rare moment....These rocks are really beautiful...so I think you have gotten to heaven today!😊
As usual great finds. Thank you so much for sharing. I must admit my heart broke just a tad when you left the septarian behind. It was shaped so weird and I loved it. Perfectly understandable though.
Oh my goodness!!! So I commented on a different video of my rock. I wish I could send a pic... you just taught me another one, thank you!!! I have a green jasper agate.... what's even cooler is its round, and the agate part meets in a triangle on both sides is beautiful! 😊 Flathead.....
Everything you found is amazing very beautiful agates and Jasper and lots of other goodies. You're doing exactly what I like to do. You're my kind of woman!😊
What a lovely day and so many beutiful rocks. Wow, I can not say that the Jaspers was best, because that Agat at 5.17... was extreme. You are always finding a LOT of lovely rocks. Lucky you. Thank you for the video
LOL most videos I watch I have to speed them up a little but, yours...... when you find a rock and get all excited and saying look at this and look at that flipping the rock every which way and back again to drop it and pick it back up and put down and wash it then grab it and start turning it....that whole sentence happens in real time of 2.3 seconds! LOL it is too funny to see how excited you get when you find a winner! but, I do have to slow it down to see all the things that make it exciting! Dont change a thing, I just got tickled at you when you fond the big yellow one about 3 mins in!! I was like "let me see let me see!!! lolThanks for sharing!!!
I love watching the world wake up. The light, the sounds....Your enthusiasm and joy...infectious. Great rocks again...Thx Mother Nature and M.Rock Mom...you to Chopper. Be well, stay safe.
Hello, MRM. It's good to see you back. That bubbly one reminded me of the botryoidal geode that I sent to you. Loved all the cool stuff. Welcome back to heaven.
Hey montana rock mom! Love watching your channel! I am from Canada and i need to get out to montana! The rocks your way are so pretty and amazing. I live vicariously thru your rock hunts and love watching what u find!
Just found your channel and I’m obsessed! I love collecting rocks on the beach and now I’ll have to come to Montana! Question for you- do you know if there is a way to turn rocks you find into semiprecious stone beads? Or would you need a whole bunch of expensive machinery for that? I love to hand-knot beaded necklaces and it would be cool to make some out of stone I found. Love your joy and enthusiasm!
That's an epic rock hunt! Those agates and jasper ate awesome! I'm sure you wish you could hunt along the river but then you could've missed out on this area!
Wow! What an amazing hunt ❤️ love it all so much MRM! I try not to be jealous, because I find some fantastic agate treasures here in Tasmania! You inspire me to share my hunts 💕
I smiled the entire video! Unbelievable finds this day! Your skills for finding these absolutely beautiful rocks is awesome! Thanks for sharing your adventure!😊
I've got to my kids out there! What finds! My kids love agate hunting, but our Lake Superior agates are quite small in comparison to yours...and less numerous. But you can't be the banding and colors of ours! If I would have only known of the agates you have in Montana when I was their years ago, I may have never left😀
Hey Kim, just wondered if your kids are into rockhounding? My son is for sure. My daughter has lost interest. She is 9 and my son is 8. I'm hoping she will come back around. So is there a way I could send you some pictures of my shelf agates? Tried to send you this message last night and I think the internet monster gobbled it up😃. My 2nd and 4th video show a couple of my agate jars in depth. You will have to check em out. Anyway, your a natural agate finder...just like my son. Please forgive me if you already received this comment. Still trying to figure out this smart phone and CZcams!
I’m so jealous. Not only am I from Montana , born in Billings grew up in roundup , my grandpa prospected with much success and found many fossils , I live in Washington now but go back often rock hounding but your finds on this video are mind blowing . I need to come with you sometime lol
So pretty with the hematite and jasper. And the banding on the agates you found. Wow. And im sorry i watched your previous video and was so excited about the app i forgot to say how cool it was you found shark teeth. Hope to find some some time myself. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. So amazing some of the stuff you find. And your cutting videos make me sit in awe. Have an awesome next hunt 👍😀
We will be staying in the forsyth area for a week later this month. Hopefully we can find some good stuff. Your video along with katydid and theo inspired us to make a trip. Thanks for all your wonderful videos.
Could you pm me if you had luck there? We are going from WI to Colorado to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary in the fall and my husband said we can go by the way of Montana one way so I can hunt some. I know where Forsyth is. Stayed there on the way to Seattle in 2014, but I didn’t have a rock interest then.
You're making me sad! The summer of the flood was my 50th high school reunion, Miles City. When I was younger, I spent a lot of time looking for rocks just like you are, but on this trip, my last one, there weren't any stream beds to look in! I found a guy in Miles City who did lapidary in his basement and bought an agate from him so I wouldn't go home empty handed. Pout over!
I dont know if anyone mentioned this, but the "coral" is actually a type of worm that burrows into drifting wood. The jasperized wood you found was actually filled with worm holes known as toledo wood.
Wow, wow, wow!!!

You had a very good day
If I went rock hounding with you I would have about 400 lbs of rocks in my jumbo backpack!!!😂 AMAZING FINDS AND GREAT VIDEO!!!
Chopper is such a good boy.
You show the rocks so well. Love it. Chopper is a wonderful companion dog too.
Beautiful rock of the day. Looks like a chunk of crazy lace

You are amazing, you have a good eye. Finding agate & jasper!
OMG what a haul, I am so JELLY. Love your videos. Thanks.

Thank you for watching and all your comments!
Those are some brilliant Jaspers, love them. That last agate had a dazzling blue. That's a great day!
Wow Wow Wow! Thanks for taking me along!
Darn. I wanted to see that rock with big white lines.
You got beautiful rocks again today.
I really like the occasional birdsong in the background. Maybe a housefinch? All the natural sounds are so much better than music. The water drip and splash, the cricket, the birds, the gravel crunching. Your voice ooo-ing and aww-ing...
Oh yeah, the rocks are cool too.
Awesome! When you pulled the large piece of jasper out it looked like a piece of something translucent was sticking out beside it 😍
Montana agates are amazing...I'm hunting occasionally in Northern Illinois Mississippi river...getting some lake superior agates on a rare moment....These rocks are really beautiful...so I think you have gotten to heaven today!😊
You have some amazing specimens there - absolute beauties!
Such pretty finds. What fun to unpack and marvel all over again.
Wow!
So so envious of your surroundings. So so many beautiful specimens. And the petrified wood always makes me drool. 😅♥
I’m a first time viewer and landed here from Theo’s page. I look forward to watching your past videos!!
Beautiful!! I hope Chopper didn't eat too many frogs and minnows. 👍👍👍☀🌞
I love the way you get soooo excited over your finds. Makes me wish I was there too. Keep on collecting.
I have to say i am not usually envious of people’s rock hunting but i am today. Absolutely amazing
Good morning, madam. I wish you a useful and valuable trip
Salem
Thanks for taking us along! A picture is better than a thousand words!
I agree. HOLY CRA-COW!!!
Beautiful indeed! Now get on home, get Chopper dried off, and get the mighty Drogon fired up!🤩👏
As usual great finds. Thank you so much for sharing. I must admit my heart broke just a tad when you left the septarian behind. It was shaped so weird and I loved it. Perfectly understandable though.
Amazing finds
Luv Chopper!!! Have fun:)
Crazymontana!!!! Aggg

I had to watch it again. My favorite was the bubbly rock and an agate, with all the red banding, red and white banding rock on.
Oh my goodness!!! So I commented on a different video of my rock. I wish I could send a pic... you just taught me another one, thank you!!! I have a green jasper agate.... what's even cooler is its round, and the agate part meets in a triangle on both sides is beautiful! 😊 Flathead.....

😲🤯 dude that one at 5:00 looks like a NICE dry head (I think that’s the name) agate! You kill it every time! Great finds!!!
LOL most videos I watch I have to speed them up a little but, yours...... when you find a rock and get all excited and saying look at this and look at that flipping the rock every which way and back again to drop it and pick it back up and put down and wash it then grab it and start turning it....that whole sentence happens in real time of 2.3 seconds!

AMAZING hunt!
Rock hounding heaven! I thought I have it good in Puget Sound but Montana rocks! (Just couldn’t help myself…lol)
I didn’t see much in Puget Sound, but it was just one small spot at a park.
I've got to my kids out there! What finds! My kids love agate hunting, but our Lake Superior agates are quite small in comparison to yours...and less numerous. But you can't be the banding and colors of ours! If I would have only known of the agates you have in Montana when I was their years ago, I may have never left😀
Your agates are on my bucket list.... you are right, your colors and banding....wow!!!!!

Wow that was definitely a successful rock hunt! Beautiful finds😊❤️

Cool nice pics

I found a 30 pound chunk of jasper along the Yellowstone near Columbus last year, it was huge, I left it for another rock hound to have.
