Fossil crabs are so cool! It's neat you can find some. I've never found one but I've seen two a kayak guide found in Chesapeake Bay. I don't know much about WA though. Good luck!

Welcome to the fossil forum. I am fairly familar with crabs from around here in washington so if you could get them picks up i could help you with identities. As far as localities for Aturia they are closly guarded secrets, but generally you can find them along the straights of juan de fuca now and then.
