I did this years ago when we lived in Jackson Hole. My wife planned a birthday adventure and surprised me with an all day adventure at one of these quarries. Highly recommend doing this, it was a total BLAST! Thanks for sharing. Love the enthusiasm. Earned a subscriber!

This is where I hunt. I have hunted there all my life. Beautiful area. Those guys are ALWAYS working hard on those sites and keep everything clean.

My wife and I took the kids there when they were at just the right age where they were interested in doing the fossil finding. My son was collecting the most just sitting off to the side by discard piles. I didn’t catch it, but no one mentioned anything about turtles, they are there also! Very fun day inexpensive and something to take home with great memories of the day!

That random KZbin algorithm just happens to bring me this and the first thing I see is this video of the most beautiful woman ever. Instantly captivated and inspired to watch Elley work in whatever she does. This could have been a 3 hour video of moving a pile of sand grain by grain with a toothbrush and I’d love the idea a little more if she was doing it. You are absolutely stunning Elley.

Awesome , surprised the place isnt packed out more , Back in the day we used to take our kids to Lyme Regis ( UK )for the weekend to split rocks for Ammonites . Had to get there early or the car park was packed out.

About 60 miles east of there, my father found an area where he was finding blue forest wood that have Carnelian centers. I have some from his collection.

Great video. Fossil Lake is one of the reasons I believe in the Expanding Earth theory over the Continental Drift theory. A smaller Earth is covered by water as in land seas with higher hills and mountains around the seas. As volcanic activities created cracks, water flowed into the cracks, as tectonic plates formed. These cracks repeatedly widened because they were the thinnest parts of the Earth's crust. That created the oceans of today. Every time a crack got wider, the in land seas drained into lower elevations, forming rivers, creeks, and lakes. Leaving behind dry lakes and drying in land ocean beds above the current sea level. Many older mountains have water erosion rings where water levels sloshing against the mountain are evident, and when an event happened the water level dropped again, where erosion left a lower elevation ring, etc... The Continental Drift theory says that the Earth was the same size as today. That the earth was covered in water except for the Pangean Continent that was pushed above the water level as the Continents tectonic plates split apart from each other, creating the ocean's between them. Ignoring the tectonic plates under the ocean's were there as the ocean's floors. Subduction does occur, and tectonic plates have ceated mountains, as have older rock formations being intruded by hydrothermal veins, causing high pressure splitting of the rock formations that create altered rock formations creating mountains. Throughout the decades of debate by geologists, the most influential geologists pushed for the Continental Drift theory. At that time, very little was known about the ocean's floors. Since that time, the ocean's floors have been and are still being explored. Radiating from every deep trenches in every ocean, there are several rock formations like mountain ranges that are younger than the ones going closer to the Continents. Distinctive evidence that they were created by the ocean's floors pushed apart in stages away from the trenches. This widened the ocean's causing an Expanding Earth. The Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean have The Ring of Fire with several tectonic plates forming volcanoes. This is why these oceans are so vast, in comparison to the Atlantic Ocean and the other small oceans and seas with just small trenches. These ocean mapping activities are just a few decades old and ongoing. But my research on what has come out publicly is further confirmation of the Expanding Earth theory.

When I see things like that .....(you know how meticulous some of those archaeologists are..).. With their little dental picks and small paint brushes using them for brooms..... Can you imagine what they would say if they saw how crudely and recklessly everybody's trying to get those fossils I'm sitting here almost rolling on the floor laughing..... And making up things in my head that they might say to you guys because you're not doing that the way they would... And we all know what Donald Trump would have said "you're fired"..... Not to change the subject or anything but... I'm a funny guy..... I will figure out some way to make myself laugh.... And sometimes other people laugh right along with me.... Just a minute I just thought of something funny I need to stop and laugh.....ahhh...... ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...... It just struck me funny that I was making a comment like this... .One time I was in the dental chair and I started laughing ..... I was anesthetized.... And getting a root canal was not even bothering me and somehow it struck me funny... And I was laughing so hard they couldn't work on me.... And so the dentist said just walk away from him.... And they did in a few minutes I was okay.
