Zeolites in Washington video

Check me out in a pith helmet! In this video, we banged on the walls at Robertson Pit outside Shelton and also the "Lucky Strike" pit near the Kamilche casino. After that I visited Rudy Tschernich at the Rice Museum in Hillsboro, Oregon, and viewed his world-class zeolite collection.

New video - Beverly Beach

On the day the tsunami hit the Oregon coast, we were down at Beverly Beach searching for fossils and other treasures. Here's the report:

Last video for 2009 - Ellensburg Blue Agate

Thanks to another big assist from Dusty Fingers Productions, the final edition of "Garret's World of Geology" for 2009 is ready for viewing on YouTube. We went back to Williams Creek Campground, near Liberty, Washington, which is a great staging area for the trek up to Red Top and a drive over to the Rock 'n Tomahawk Ranch, an easy fee-dig area. We combined both onto one video, tossed in the relevant geology, and voila!

Our special guest was Jake Riley, who came home on leave from Iraq and was rewarded with the biggest agate.

YouTube gold panning video

Just finished another edition of "Garret's World of Geology," which covers gold panning and prospecting up around Steven's Pass, east of Seattle.

It rained just about the entire time, so you'll hear a lot of background noise in most of the scenes.
