thejilly Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Forum newbie here! I will be traveling to western Montana/Yellowstone area later this month and am looking for some fossil hot spots. Does any one know of any easy to access areas around the Billings or Bozeman areas, or in areas along the route between the two cities? OR are there places to find fossils in or around Yellowstone? The more specific the location info (i.e. a location in a state park, GPS coordinates, etc.), the better. Please and thank you!! P.S. I will also be traveling from Bozeman to Banff via highway 15, so if anyone knows of any spots located not far from that highway, that would also be great!

Raggedy Man Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 http://www.fossilsites.com/index.html Here is a good place to start your hunt. With that said, fossil collecting in Yellowstone is prohibited and if caught will put an abrupt end to your trip. Good luck! Best regards, Paul ...I'm back.

thejilly Posted June 12, 2015 Author Share Posted June 12, 2015 Thanks, I did see that link, unfortunately the directions aren't that specific for the areas I will be around. Sorry, I probably shouldn't have put "in" Yellowstone - I certainly don't intend on breaking any laws! Really, I'm just looking for areas around Yellowstone - just north of Yellowstone to be exact. Thanks for the input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
