Went out on a few trips this year and have some pics to share with you from some different sites.
This unnamed jasper was pulled from the Barrier river in bc.
Enjoy!

This one is jasper and not sure? Havent had time to cut into it yet.

because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns -- the ones we don't know we don't know.

Nice jaspers. Also, keep your eyes open for agate, although they are more plentiful a bit to the west.

Thanks, never seen agate in that river my guess is upstream from Barrier? Go west and south and it is so abundant, didnt help being mid summer and the rock's were so coated with slime it was difficult even spotting the jasper.
Stopped and did some panning around lillooet on the fraser near the cn tunnels, no color just black sand.

Thats the kind of places I like exploring for rocks. Take a break and wet a line before heading home with a bag full of rocks and a full stringer. Now that's a great trip.
Oh nice finds by the way

Any agate is fun to cut and polish, I would post some pictures of the stuff I have finished but unable to post pictures nor can I add any posts also have a sweet geode I recently cut. So I put this up to see if I can add to profile nothing else will.

A nice place for agate is Watching Creek at Kamloops.
