Thank you, Matt! I am happy to see it; it has been years since you showed us your creek :)

Thanks.

It's a reminder that every rock has its own history...a story to tell. Lots still to be discovered

You must also come across a lot of birds and other wildlife when roaming the stream looking for fossils.

What age are the fossils you find? Also that's a very beautiful creek, I would definetly venture there even if there weren't fossils!

Beautiful honey hole Matt! Looks like you could spend an entire week looking and never turn over the same rock. Any pics of some finds from there? Thanks for sharing!

Looks like a great and fun place to hunt. I could spend hours there.
