Lake Superior Agates

[DARK30]

We'll see what the gage does...October maybe?

Heres a few gems from the last few outings...

[Zelmsdawg]

Dark, you are a lucky guy. Nice rocks

[TonkaBass]

Third one from the top is very cool looking! Awesome finds dark!

[Rick G]

They all got their own little thing going on. Just more nice find's by D30 That guy sure is lucky

[DARK30]

I just got permission to hunt a pit up by St.Cloud...maybe take a little road trip this weekend. Its gonna be hot out but hopefully it rains..

[Connan]

I hear St.Cloud is PRIME agate territory. Seen lotsa big ones come from there. Good Luck Dark!

[Rick G]

Gona be hot thats for sure. A lot of the bigger pits and even some of the small ones get picked hard up here. There is a new one just southeast of town, within days of them starting to work it the rock hound's were there thick. I have better luck in farm field's.

But as we all know by now D30 can find quality aggie's just about anywhere he steps I'm sure he will find a basket ball size one up here.

[Connan]

Im sure there are a few field of dreams, but this time of summer its going to be tough because the crops are in full grow... Here is a funky limonite covered agate i found recently.

Here is the other side of the half pound corn field find from a few weeks ago.

[DARK30]

Went up to Spring Lake Park yesterday to visit my old folks in the old folks home...picked a couple out of the landscape rock around the building...

[Rick G]

I used to work for a landscaping company out of Osseo back in the late 90s. I looked forward to the big comercial projects where we would be putting down the landscaping river rock. Some days I would find a ice cream buckett full . The boss never realy understood why I was always stoping what I was doing to pick up some silly rocks

[DARK30]

This one looks back at you

The Whale Eye

[Connan]

Thats a neat whale eye! I noticed that strange looking red/white hurricane agate directly above the whale eye. Any more pics of that one?

... Broke my streak of bad luck today! Not great but its an Agate and bigger than I have found in a while.

[gooty]

Hey..I have the other half of that agate!

[TonkaBass]

Nice ones guys! I might try and get out one of these days...

[DARK30]

Hurricane agate?

[Connan]

Nice. that's a cool one. Yeah I dunno what to really call them But I have heard others call them "Hurricane agates". I've seen ones that look very similar. Kinda with the disrupted bands of white within red like clouds floating around.

[Rick G]

Prety cool one . Classic Minnesota red/white!

[DARK30]

A nice red one...

[Connan]

Very nice! Is that an ice background?

[DARK30]

Secret

[DARK30]

Good sized water level..

[TonkaBass]

Now thats a cool agate! Keep them coming Dark!
