We had a WONDERFUL trip!

We went to 3 bridges, all on county roads. One North of Ladonia, One North-East of Wolfe City and One North of Pecan Gap. One we were able to drive my 4x4 SUV right down into the river bed.
After all the rain we have had this summer, we were shocked at how low the river was, we only saw 3
PUDDLES! None deeper than 4 inches of water! We came home with 3 large buckets full of fossils and bones, our best finds being a near mint condition Mosasaur vertabrae and a near mint 2 inch long Mosasaur tooth that is beautiful. Mosasaur was a 65 Million year old giant crocodile-like river lizard that was 30-60 feet long.
We also found lots of tiny Gastropod shells, and other shells, bones, and fossils. Well worth the trip and we plan on going again this fall. Our puppy really loved digging and she found quite a few nice things too.
The only thing I hadn't remembered was just how steep the banks are. If you have knee or ankle problems like I do, be prepared to hurt for a few days after climbing up and down them!

Also be careful and watch for spiders, there were thousands crawling in the river bed, many Brown Recluses.
