Bryan, TX

Whiskey Bridge Saturday, September 24th, 9 am. This is an open fieldtrip.

Located on Hwy 21 west of Bryan Texas. You will be searching the Stone City Formation for beautiful examples of Eocene Age invertebrate , including gastropods, pelecypods and squid material. Shark teeth and other interesting fossils can also be found. You will be exploring a bluff only a couple hundred feet from where you park. The fossils are easily recovered and a rock hammer or tool for prying is all that’s needed. I also suggest bringing a few pieces of tin foil to wrap more delicate fines, .

Directions: Take hwy 21 west from Bryan about 10 miles. You will cross the little Brazos a mile before coming to the Brazos. You will see a RR bridge on your right and a parking area right after the bridge. Park there and you can walk down to the hunting area. Contact information, Polly pollym@airmail.net 903 916-0083
