Old collecting sites

I decided to take a quick trip to some old collecting spots which I read about online. Apparently it was a good decision since nobody has been to them in a while and they seem to have been mostly forgotten since people are so busy in today's society these sites aren't picked over as much as some I have been to. IMG_4348.thumb.JPG.b3fcdd2fa9afb6f89fce2a319b0bf843.JPGIMG_4353.thumb.JPG.58f45d503fe1e387cdbe65e9106fece2.JPG

Nice finds!

I have found that a site will get hit hard and picked over and everyone says it is no good there and quit going to that site. But if You let it sit idle for a few years Then a whole "new" set of material is exposed.

Thanks Tim, I'm headed to New York for the next 5 weeks for work so I'm hoping to get in some hunting while I'm there. Maybe I will find another sea scorpion now that I have permission on a private property there ;)
