Jakuzi Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Hi y’all, I’ve been hurting for some good fossil hunting since moving to Memphis and as luck would have it a job put me within 3 hours of NSR. Not to mention the water level reports from last week that I’ve been salivating over. So I hopped in the car and managed to get out and hunt last Friday, Saturday with 2 friends, and Monday.(Sunday I went to Post Oak due to weather lol). Water is still pretty high in most areas and some serious water hiking had to be done to get to the bars. I went in twice and my buddy went all the way in. Most areas where I hunted were undisturbed and fresh for the picking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I’m a bit far to get down there as much as I would like. I saw the rain and I went for it. There will be tons of stuff once the water recedes for sure. I’ll be back in 3 weeks to see what I can scoop up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fruitbat Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Just so you know...I think John S. might have been referring to this one:..also from the NSR but collected way back in the 1980s. -Joe Illigitimati non carborundum Fruitbat's PDF Library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoL My buddy found this chunk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeargleSchmeargl Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Find the skeleton that's being unearthed? Every single fossil you see is a miracle set in stone, and should be treated as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
