For looking for geode sites throughout the U. S., there is a web site that attempts to identify most of the major rock and mineral collecting areas. Again, local contacts/local info will reveal whether any of these sites are tapped out or are still worth the effort. The link is http://www.missourigeologists.org/Min-Loc1.pdf.
Happy hunting! In my opinion, even a somewhat fruitless rock or mineral search still gets you out in nature and into some great scenery. Then there's the exercise from digging . . . .

Hope THAT makes it through the Mindat cyberspace innards. If not, then e-mail me at my e-mail address and I can send it to you.

Do you know of any place where you can buy geodes from any of those geode beds in california? Have not seen michigan geodes nor ohio geodes for sale either. Seen the hall's gap and the illinois geodes for sale on ebay and maybe a couple websites. Also the Dale Hollow,TN geodes I have seen for sale.

Might be easier to list the areas where you can't find them.

For those who are interested, my son has posted detailed field trip reports on several Indiana geode locations at his MineralCollecting web pages. Look under Locality References and you will find them. Sorry I can't post the URL, but I seem to be blocked on this site.
