Only been there once, it's a long drive from Pickering. But that area is legendary for fossils. More variation than the Collingwood area.
RE: Fossil Fish's 2015 Multi-species challenge entries - Fossil Fish - 04-26-2015 08:56 PM
Probably more variation than anywhere in the province. Have you ever tried Bowmanville or Brechin?
RE: Fossil Fish's 2015 Multi-species challenge entries - Dave Bailey - 04-26-2015 09:11 PM
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.
