On the Hunt For Dinosaurs Once Again! Day 8


We started this morning out in Kemmerer, Wyoming just a little ways from the Fossil Lake Safari Quarry. 




We spent 4 hours with a chisel and a hammer looking through chunks of limestone to find prehistoric fossils of fish! There was the possibility of finding something else, but we only found fish today.


It was super cool! 

After we were done "fishing" there were saws for us to cut down the fossils we found into more manageable pieces. 


Then, we drove through a good section of Wyoming....




We stopped for an overlook and photo op at the Red Canyon. It was absolutely stunning. Photos really do not do it justice. The landscape on our drive was amazing. 






We saw a lot of cows today, and there were even some goats outside the restaurant we stopped at for dinner!




Today's State Count: 1 Wyoming
