Jasper found in Wyoming

On this page I will post photos of jasper I  have found and photographed.  These were all found in the state of Wyoming, U.S.A.
Above is red jasper, which I wet partially to reveal the true color of the stone.

Olive Green jasper striated with streaks of white quartz.

 
Rust colored jasper

This I would consider a conglomerate specimen, with black jasper as the matrix, that has embedded within it what appears to be white and yellow quartz.

The large semi-round boulder in the center of this photo of rocks in a dry creek bed is jasper -- it has been tumbled by the waters and is dark golden yellow with reddish rust streaks.
