Irongiant97 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 (edited) So im very new to this and since winter is here, I thought it'd be a good time to ask for any advice for a novice (ie tools, where to look, anything that would be useful). I don't know anything about how to actually go about looking for fossils. So far I've learned a bit from people here, but just to get a basic gist overall would be a good start.

caldigger Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 It kind of all depends on where you are and what type of fossils you are going for. Give us some idea of where you are in Minnesota so if there are members in that general area, they can give you the best advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've already asked, what I meant was I just want some general fossil hunting advice. sorry I wasn't more specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
