This family found a very rare, and I don’t know of one ever being found in the Stewartville member of the Galena Formation in SE MN, Eobronteus sp. pygidial moult.

These images are from a wonderful family friendly hunt put on by the Eagle Bluff Skills School on June 1st, 2019. We had eight adults and I believe seven children ranging in ages from three and up.

Waiting for everyone to arrive the kids got to feed baby goats – Athena and Artemis! 😀

We started out familiarizing everyone with the fossils we would be hunting in the fossil gardens in the yard.

Then we went hunting fossils!

At site one we harvested lots of fossils and saw a beaver dam and this tree!

A fun day! Lots of fossils and smiles!

I do private and group fossil hunts for only $10 per person per hour, children 7-12 half price and children 6 and under FREE! Minimum time is 1 hour around the yard and fossil barn. Great for birthday parties! I also sell fossil hunting maps for just $5! Staying at Whispering Winds Airbnb, fossil hunts are 25% off! 😀
