14 day CRYSTAL HUNTING adventure to Arkansas!
I had an amazing opportunity to spend two weeks in Arkansas with the most amazing people digging crystals and minerals. And of course, the whole trip was filmed creating a 9 video series. These videos will be released over the next 3 weeks and let me tell you, it was EPIC!

Is a mine near Ballarat Victoria Australia and has massive quartz crystals
cant wait to see this :0 Hope you guys have fun!
So awesome.
My husband and I just got our prospectors licenses!!! We love watching your videos and we would LOVE to come on a crystal hounding trip with you! Teach us oh wise one!! Lol!! 😀
Can’t wait.
I hope yall have a great time! What a cast!
I here a lot about the crystals in Arkansas. I might check it out at some point. They also got diamonds but that’s way far away. It’s on the complete opposite end of the state from me. Probably not worth going again.
Old disabled house bound dusty rusty Rockhound here saying: What an hoot! I’ll be with you in spirit and watching the videos! Rock on my friends!
Smiling!
Very cool, I live in Harrison, AR, NW corner about 30 miles south of Branson, Mo. Looking forward to the video.
Sure you have come and gone by now, be safe.
I’ve learned so much from watching Dan and Pauly. I was able to identify mutton fat jade in my river. So excited to learn more
I want go to your too
Great, now he’ll never go back to Canada! Lol, just kidding!
GREAT SALT PLAINS IN OKLAHOMA! YOU CAN DIG YOUR OWN CRYSTALS!
I’m excited!
These YT collabs always make me giggle. I can see Dan “wrapping it up”. Then getting in line so one of the other YT can do their intro. Rinse and repeat until the whole group is done.
@Dan Hurd – Considering the prices large clear quartz crystals typically sells for in the UK, it’s a safe bet to assume you’ve landed on a serious fortune for sure! 👍🏻
I can honestly say though, for me personally, unearthing these crystals has more appeal than watching you pan for gold slivers from river bedrock.
⭐ Keep up the great videos Dan & co. ⭐
I know most of the youtubers
Oh wow
They look like sweet ppl to hangout with 😍
In Arkansas, forgets to mention the Arkansas diamonds. 😂 I love you for that Dan. Happy hunting!!!
I only need the turquoise finds because I can find so much quartz crystals. I have no turquoise laying around the house like quarts.
What did ya think of the area? I was begging Pauly to come up to eureka springs when y’all where around but to no avail😅😂🤣😭🥲
Hey I actually know someone with the name Dan hurd it’s crazy lol
You guys are gonna have lots of fun
Cool can’t wait 👏👏👍👍👍
This is gonna be good
In Arkansas myself, of course I live one state away.
Can you balance all the gold you have got from the sand and soil
I know you guys are going to have a blast I sure wish I could join in on the fun I live in mena Arkansas and I love your videos dan hurdle and Brian the crystal collector I haven’t seen the other guys videos I I’m sure you could find some gold in the mountains over here definitely some great crystals
How much gold do you lose? (It goes into the water.).
I seem to always find leverite,, you know leverite where you found it
Hay I live in Arkansas no one really talks about it tho.
Wow very nice 👌😀
Very interesting.
Make sure to visit Crystal Vista to pick up some Blue Phantom quartz. Arkansas native here saying welcome to our state!
There is a easyer way to find crystals, you just need to hqve a gun and a jelewary store near you
Wowww….amazing
This is adorable. I want your life
Don’t forget the diamonds!! Near murpheesboro
Just Had a dyslexic moment… Thought the title read crystal meth hunting in Arkansas… Shouldn’t be too out of a challenge
I can’t wait Dan. Let’s get it buddy
I thought you said Holly and his cameraman Matt. Lol
Omg welcome! I’ve followed you for years! I hg ad no idea you would ever come here!
Looks like fun!
Very COOL Dan!!! And of course Pauly is the class clown there, love his antics photobombing you! I’ll be looking up those videos, thanks Dan!
