Yup. Are you familiar with the area? I got a complete but flattened trilobite, a couple of nice blastoids and a bunch of the usual things. I love that place but wish it wasn't so far away.
Only been there once, it's a long drive from Pickering. But that area is legendary for fossils. More variation than the Collingwood area.
Probably more variation than anywhere in the province. Have you ever tried Bowmanville or Brechin?
Not yet. Brechin is a quarry, isn't it? And I'm not familiar with the Bowmanville site. I remember there being a beach area in Cobourg, went there over twenty years ago, can't remember the exact location now.
Can't figure out how to add more attachments, to the first post, so:
