Skylar Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Hi everyone, My name is Skylar Snowden. I am brand new to the forum and brand new to fossil hunting. I am not from Arizona and am relatively new to the area. I am a Marine Biologist/Curator by profession, and have recently started getting into fossil hunting. I have found a few at diamond point, but want to find some other options. I was going to try and head up to the Payson area again in a week or so, and wanted to see if anyone could elaborate on the site that is, I think, 87 near the E. Verde river. Or, any other sites in the Payson/rim area. I did try the Paleo Site, but found very little. Honestly, I really enjoy doing this, as it gets me and my 2 dogs out of the valley heat. Lol. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPS Ammonite Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Welcome from Scottsdale. Consider joining the Southwest Paleontological Society in Mesa. Link. We will show you where the fossils are. Also, check out the fossils at the Pinal Mineral and Geology Museum link See my Arizona Paleontology Guide. If you read some of the papers and books they will tell you where the fossils are. Link 2 My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned. See my Arizona Paleontology Guide link The best single resource for Arizona paleontology anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
