digit Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Wish I had remembered about this museum earlier. I'm up in the Chicago area at the moment and getting in a little fossil hunting while I'm here. Was just out in that area checking out a road cut in Byron (very sparse fossil material there--just a few internal molds of gastropod shells). I'll likely not head back to that road cut but I should make a note to make a special trip to the Burpee Museum next time I'm in town. Great gallery with lots of interesting pictures. Cheers. -Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBOB Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 The Burpee museum is great! I get up there a few times a year. With there large collection of IL fossils it always jazzes me up after going there to get out and get collecting! I like walking through their Carboniferous forest too. And of course there Mazon Creek stuff is neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
