Hi guys! I am looking for new areas to hunt for rocks and fossils around the KC area. I have been to the Blue river, Kansas river, Cedar creek, Tuttle creek, Perry Lake, Mill creek, and abandoned quarry areas. Anyone have any general locations of where I can find some stuff? I am an avid hunter for all sorts of fossils and rocks (rockhounding is my favorite past time)! I've had the most luck at the Kansas river and Perry lake. Some of my finds include cow skulls, cone coral, shells, agates, vertebrae, and a bunch of druzy quartz geodes and chalcedony. I ha

Geodized fossils from the Mississippian of southern Indiana
traveltip1 posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
I found these several geodized Mississippian marine fossils in southern Indiana. They may not all be hollow with quartz crystals inside, but many are. The fossils usually balloon in size in the geode-forming process. Here's 2 sides of a crinoid calyx... -

Robin (Rob), the helper on site brought out some very neat finds including an ammonite hash, ammonite, and an Asaphiscus wheeleri with a green tint to it.

Recently Opened An 8 Inch Tennessee Geode And Found Something Strange Inside?
Kpratt posted a topic in Fossil ID
This was an 8 inch rattler that when I opened it to my amazement ther was some type of fossil stuck in it. Seems to me to be a good sized piece of petrified wood. But as old as these are is that even possible? The geode is the typical round sperelke the many others I have opened, but I found this in there stuck in the crystals! I am curious if this adds much value to it or is it fairly common and this just happens to be the first one I have found like this. Most of the smaller rattlers I open are puffed fossilized clams of some type, the larger ones are generally speres. It just seemd odd and
