Fossil Hunt

I thought I would post a few pictures of our Fossil Hunt last weekend. (Click on pictures for a better view)
Here's the location of the limestone or sandstone fossils on the top of the hill

The rocks...
A fossil in this rock. Look closely at the "bump" on the top of the rock at the bottom of the picture. Notice the ridges on the "bump".

  1. That's cool. Two summers ago I spent an afternoon in a tributary of the Ohio River grabbing rocks off the river bottom. Nearly everyone was loaded with similar fossils. Must have been the same sort of geology as in your neck of the woods.
