Hello!  I came into a ton of fossils well documented from the 70s 80s and 90s.

I haven't gotten through half of the boxes. It's pretty incredible!

My favorite things about fossil hunting: getting out of my own head, getting into nature and, if I’m lucky, finding some cool souvenirs.

Do they have information as to the locations and formations they are from?  Species?

Thanks guys!  Yes they're all cataloged and in most cases they have a description of how they were acquired.

Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!
