RCFossils Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Last week I took advantage of the warming weather and made a last minute trip out to Pit 11. It was a great day of collecting and I managed to collect over eight hundred concretions in six hours. I found several fossils including a partial Tully Monster already split open. I think i will have a few more once the concretions split. Unfortunately i did not take many pictures but here are a few is one of the Tully. I will update this post if i find anything else interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrangellian Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 So the place is NOT picked over quite yet, as was my earlier impression? At least not after a winter/rain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crinoid1 Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Awesome find! I would've thought the site would have been picked over, but the 800 concretions beg to differ I guess Gabe I like crinoids...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCFossils Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 Less then one one thousandth of one percent of the original collecting area is still accessible but if you are persistant, there are still great finds to be made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
