Mining Safety and Equipment

I cannot emphasize first and foremost to always be safe when out hiking and especially when hunting rocks. Even the small things you would never think of like having a small zip lock bag in your backpack with dish soap in case you or your children accidentally touch a stinging nettle plant. Wow, did I find out the hard way about that one! My finger was burning for 2 days but if I had some dish soap to put on it as soon as I touched the plant it would have immediately prevented the burn on my finger. Stinging nettle has an acid oil on it that dish soap immediately removes.

Here is a video covering all of the equipment and safety procedures I follow every time I go out hiking and mining. Whether you are just going for a hike to a well known and well visited place or venturing into the rugged mountains, this video contains good tips and great advise for everyone.
