  • Crystal Hunting In Colorado is so much fun! Come along and find out how we mine and meet a few friends as well! The main goal is to have a good time and be safe, yet you'll still find a few big crystals with us in the process!

    Oh man, the smile on that guy's face when he said "you should take that home with you, that's a really nice one, very rare." I couldn't help but smile too, what a great experience

    I like the educational part of the video where they explain how to use the land in an ethical way by replacing the vein, and then the topsoil.

    I'm in Colorado Springs, and I will gladly pay to go out on a trip with you. I know there's a ton of places to hunt here but I can't seem to find any tours available, or information on BLM land where collecting is permitted. I don't want to break any rules or step on anyone's toes so I'm looking for someone to show me the ropes. Great video! And I love that you aim to preserve the land, that's great.

      If you are in the Colorado Springs area, I would love to take you out sometime. Ben rockhounding in the Pikes Peak batholith since 2008. In my opinion, one of the best activities in all of Colorado!

    I’m visiting from Texas in September. I’ve always been a rock lover. I would love to find some of these or just be there to witness it. It’s so amazing what beautiful things the earth produces. Any places you can recommend for a beginner the has public access or guided tours? Thank you for taking care of the land!!!!

      I've been trying for over a year now. It's honestly a matter of luck as well as spending a lot of time searching. Personally I can tell you a few places to go but I still have yet to find amazonite or smokies. I can tell you where to find calcite crystals and selenite of several types in one area. Rough flourite in another area that has other things I haven't found yet.

    Hello from France, I love al the video about great mineral discovery, you did great job in this big hole and thanks for thinking about the next generation. I am planning a trip in Colorado to do some rockhounding. Like others I do not want to break any rules. So I would love to have someone to show me around and dig with enthusiasm. I used to live in Fort Collins and I will be staying mostly in Northern Colorado. Jean-Patrick "JP"

    My parents moved to Colorado Springs last year. I gave them a visit mid April and was saddened that I couldn’t find a place to public dig for my first time. I tried my best but didn’t find anything in my 3 trips while visiting. I’m going back in just a couple weeks and have been researching off and on for the last 6 months where I should/could go
    If this comment gets read, I certainly am looking for some guidance and of course would pay for that kind service

    I realize you area professional miner but I am so glad you are concerned with the environment. I nag people about refiling their hoes after they dig nut most just leave them. That is some really nice pieces you have and I would like to work some of that. We are going to be visiting Colo. before to long so I will try to look you up. I lived in Glenwood Springs and Grand Junction for several years but unfortunately was not into rocks. It is now my passion. Am subbing you. Havagudun my new friend.
