Hey, headed into Denver tomorrow, passing Dinosaur Ridge in Morrison, then down to Colorado Springs. Can anyone point me in a direction to search for a few fossils along the way? I have heard Florissant is productive, but anywhere else between Denver and Colorado Springs? Thanks for any help,

I just went to Florissant last weekend and would recommend going. I know @Brett Breakin' Rocks recently went to Baculite Mesa near Pueblo but I've never been. Good luck on wherever you decide to go.

@Top Trilo Thanks. Do you have any images of your finds there? I don't know much about the Florissant site. Looks like possible insects and plant material?

Yep, my trip report is the thread @Nimravis attached. 

Thanks Ralph
