Trammel Fossil Park

A rocky hillside in an unlikely industrial area holds fossils galore, and you can keep what you find. Bring rock hammers, sifters, water for rinsing, and wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty.

Ordovician fossils are in this ten-acre site in the middle of an industrial park, less than a mile from a McDonald's. All fossil hunting should be this convenient.
