LiamL Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Today i finally visited port mulgrave. It was wet, sludgy and foggy. I had looked forward to visiting this place for ages. I parked at the top and then begun the long slippery climb down. The ladders are pretty steep and it’s a long, wet climb down but it’s worth it for crazy fossil hunters like us. Once at the bottom and you climb down the ladder to the beach ammonites are everywhere, i found two right next to each other (bottom left picture). I was very pleased to find a good belemnite and it came out without breaking! It seems you’ll always find things here, But the hardest part is getting back up the cliff with a bag full of fossils. Here are my finds from today! A very productive site! Thanks for reading 4 Yorkshire Coast Fossil Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossildude19 Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Very jealous of you folks who get to find ammonites on beaches such as this.

Monica Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I, too, wish I that could find ammonites and belemnites in my area but, alas, the rocks around me are just too old. At least I get to see fellow members such as yourself find them in their local areas! Thanks for sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dpaul7 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 It seems y9ou had a wonderful day! I really liked the cephalopods - We don't seem to have them in my area! The belemnite is my favorite.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
