San Diego Fossil Field Collectors

I have not run across many San Diego based fossil collectors who go out regularly.

I am out 2-3 times a week and am always exploring new "legal" areas to potentially collect from.

Besides the occasional trips to the desert, anyone know of San Diego based fossil organizations or people who are active field collectors?

Welcome to the forum. The home office of the company I work for is based in Northern San Diego County and I have been to several localities in the area but nothing new for a few years. I would love to go out in the field with you the next time I am in the area. What kind of fossils are you finding?

Welcome to the forum. I would definitely check out the club that Tim gave you the info on.

I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt
