​
General Tour Structure: Groups will receive 1.5 to 2 hours of fossil hunting time. During this Adventure, we may walk up to a few city blocks as we find huntable shell and fossil material. We won't be digging or sifting, only searching the surface with our eyes! Our style of fossil hunting is surface collecting. The water has done the sorting for us, uncovering new fossils every 12 hours.

Please note: this tour does not involve a boat ride.
