Poc Trip - 11Feb 2012 With Tff Members

[Texas Fossil Hound]

Went down to clean out a section of Post Oak Creek Saturday with CreekCrawler, BobWill, and Feeshy1. Not a lot sitting on the surface despite the recent flood stage. However, we were not copletely skunked. A few items were found that were worth hanging on to.

50mm worn but huge Cretodus

Nice sized Squalicorax

Finds from the day - several nice Ptychodus

Ptychodus Mortoni (in 'C' grade shape)

Interesting 4.5" bottle - "Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy" "Des Moines, IA, USA"

Hopefully the other TFF members will post their finds as well.

It was good to hang out with everyone!

Nice finds TFH, and the bottle is very cool.

[BobWill]

The broken bits I found aren't worth posting but it was great to hunt with you guys despite the 15 degree windchill and thigh-deep water. Glad you got some teeth worth showing!

[feeshy1]

these are my finds from Friday and Saturday at POC...it was slim pickings but I did find my first mosasur vert which is wayyy cool for me....it was nice to meet the guys from TFF and a extremely cold day...Thanks to Creek Crawler, Texas Fossil Hound, and BobWill for a good day!

I thought I would post one more pic of the Crow shark tooth. It is in really good shape.

[Bill]

[racevw112]

Looks good.

[CreekCrawler]

Awesome hunting with you Gents...

I came home with one great P.whipplei ,one button,and one small shark vert..

Man it was frigid out there and I now consider us all dedicated fossiliers.

Bob, we came across a small wooden sifter. I'm sure it was yours and I will save it for ya..

[surfergirlatx]

Looks like a really fun hunt....wish i lived closer so I could have tagged along

[barefootgirl]

You boys did good considering how cold it was. To the crazy goes the spoils!

[Texas Fossil Hound]

We were in chest deep water at one point - trying to get to the more remote gravel bars. Still there really was not a lot happening out there for the effort. Still... at least we were out doing something we enjoy with others who are equally demented, passionate!

Well I was planning to head out there tomorrow but it sounds like you guys probably hit it hard. Where abouts on the creek did you hunt? I want to try and avoid covering areas that have already been well combed.

[Tony Eaton]

You guys did well. Dang, it was cold that day though.

The bottle... I see one like that on ebay for $27 ;-)

We went east from the railroad.

Yeah, Barry that screen was mine. I remembered it way too close to the car to go back. If you come across someone who would like to have it, that's fine. I have several simple ones like that so I consider them almost disposible.

Tony,

That's almost enough for a new Rock Hammer! I think I will hang on to it, but the others I have are up for grabs. I found an old Dr. Pepper bottle and a couple other interesting glass items.
