Beneke Creek Trip

We’ll be looking for concretions in the creek bedrock, some of which contain fossil crabs. It’s also a lovely small creek in the woods, perfect for a hot July day.  Tools for this field trip might include rock hammer and chisel.  Because it is probably going to be warm, make sure you have a hat, sunscreen and plenty of water. Recommended that you wear lightweight long pants and shirt. You will be in the water, but think about wearing shoes that cover toes and heels, like sneakers you don’t worry about getting wet. You need to be a member of NARG to participate for liability concerns. You can find information on how to join by going to nargpaleo.org.  Free event and car pool is available. We will meet at Jewell School, 83874 OR-103, Seaside, OR 97138 at 10AM, then go together to the dig site.  For details, please contact Greg at greg.fossil.hunter@gmail.com.
