Nez Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Hey everybody. Just wondering if anyone knows any good creeks or wooded areas that are a good location for fossil hunting near cincinnati Ohio. I've found a few creeks that have a lot of shell fossils but not much else. Im looking for places off the beaten path but not private property . any info is appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarleysGh0st Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Cincinnati has a terrific fossil club, the Dry Dredgers, who host frequent field trips. I see they have one scheduled for this Saturday, April 23. http://drydredgers.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nez Posted April 18, 2016 Author Share Posted April 18, 2016 Lol thanks. I've found several places that are loaded with shell fossils. Thanks for the links. I knew there had to be a fossil or rock hound club in a big city like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgcox Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 (edited) I posted earlier asking if you are visiting Cincinnati We can give you several hunting sites or you can attend the Dry Dredgers meeting 4/22 at Bornstein Hall at the university of Cincinnati.
