rejd Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Was out in the horsehoe canyon in the Alberta Badlands on the weekend for a few hours and came home with a nice albertosaurus tooth and a vert from a champsosaurus. I was with a couple of others who found some teeth as well. A fossil hunter needs sharp eyes and a keen search image, a mental template that subconsciously evaluates everything he sees in his search for telltale clues. -Richard E.
