A friend of mine took me to Green Mill Run on the advice of someone she knew. Found a lot of whalebone, teeth, and Belemnites and I want to see what else I can find. I got my hands on a couple of good reference books and I am planning to take another trip (it is about a 2 hour drive) when someone is free to come with me. I heard that on the Cape Fear River, near Elizabethtown, that the Phoebus Landing on the Cape Fear River, is a good place to check (and much closer--just 45 minutes). I want to go. Does anyone know (1) what GPS coordinates to use to get to Phoebus Landing; (2) I heard I need to get into a kayak or boat to access potential fossils and I have never been kayaking or boating...suggestions?; and (3) Are there other good sites less than an hour away from Fort Bragg? Finally (4) Are there any fossils to find on the shoreline of Lake Singletary in NC? When I emailed to ask the state Geologists for places I might find fossils they said Lake Singletary was a good idea but I haven't been able to find anything posted on the web about anyone consistently finding fossils there (yet). TIA.
