Hi everyone! I'm going on a fossil hunt soon to Fort Sheridan in Lake County Illinois and part of a college club trip! I know the area around Lake Michigan usually has lots of Silurian era (443-419 Million Years ago) fossils, some I'm wondering what kind of fossils can be found in that area?

I remember seeing some fragments of rugose corals and brachiopods in some of the beach pebbles. Not much else there though.
