where do the dummies think they came from? whats found in the valley is pieces tumbled in old gravel deposits. it came from the tennaway and red top area as the glaciers punched their way through the areas breaking out these type and others from above dropping them in the ellensburg region. the geodes and seams were broken up in removal and transport by the moving ice.

It is a red top "potato" not the same as ellensburg blue.

Many who have seen this have said, yeah, it looks like an Ellensburg Blue, but my daughter took it to a dealer and he told her it was a Red Top Agate. Anyone else have an opinion?
