Trying to locate a site recommended by a group we met today outside Waurika, OK...
AgainstAllAuds posted a topic in Questions & Answers
Hello! This is a long shot and will probably read more like a Craigslist "missed connections" ad, but I figured it was worth a shot! My husband and I were on a road cut looking for fossils today (Feb 27) between Randlett and Waurika, Oklahoma. A group stopped and asked if we were fossiling and we all ended up having a great chat. Y'all had come from the Whiteside Museum of Natural History Permian Fest and were headed further south into Texas. I believe y'all were associated with the American Museum of Natural History... we didn't exchange names (why?? haha) but y'all pointed us to a fossil hunting site and put it into my husbands map. We never found it! So if by some miracle one of you see this, we would love to try and find the place again. Thank you for the directions (even though we clearly didn't follow them) and for looking at some of our finds and sharing some of yours!-

Hi y'all, I went to the AMNH literally days before NY (and the world) shut down. There definitely seemed to be less people than I presumed was usual. Despite spending just a couple of hours there, I can say it's my favorite museum. Unlike many museums, most of the specimens on display are complete or mostly actual fossils. I really want to go back to take my time and comb through the entire museum. I wish I took more pictures - guess I was too busy admiring it all. You can tour the museum yourself on Google Earth (the link should drop you right into the Saurichian hall). I realize there are several other topics about the AMNH, but I figured I could contribute some new/more views of the same specimens or at least a couple of new things. Façade:

Atlas Obscura Article on AMNH ID Day with the Fossil Forum's Own Carl
dre464 posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
I stumbled across an Atlas Obscura article about the American Museum of Natural History's annual Identification Day. The Fossil Forum's own @Carl was featured prominently in the piece! Check it out. It's a fun read! Daniel- 10 replies
