Best Local Fossil Hunting

Banks of Shoal Creek

Tiny, ancient snail-like crustaceans are camouflaged in the pale mud lining Shoal Creek. Once you find the first graphite gray or buff colored specimen you'll realize that you're SURROUNDED!! Very satisfying to the novice fossil finder. There are other more exotic beasties concealed the the flaking limestone, See how many different kinds you and Rocky (or Roxie) can exhume(dig up). The best hunting is after a good rain. As always, exercise caution!!
