The Best Megalodon Tooth Hunting Site I Ever Found
I don't throw around the word best especially when it comes to hunting megalodon teeth because there have been so many good spots during my 30+ years of collecting, but I feel confident in using it here. I can't believe how lucky I got finding this spot. It was completely untouched and the bottom of the dig was just at the top of the fossil bearing formation. That meant all I had to do was look down in some spots to find teeth, and in the rest, I only had to dig off a foot or two of overburden. There were bones everywhere which is the tell-tale indicator of megalodon and other fossil shark teeth. It didn't take long to dig one out, then another, and another. Then when I walked on the piles after heavy rain there were more big teeth. All together I was able to collect this site for about a week and I found 17 complete megalodon teeth in that short amount of time. I'm not planning on retiring anytime soon, but it is going to be very difficult to top this spot. Summerville, I love you!

BRIEF BIO
________________________________________________________________
This is the continuing chronicle of my exodus from traditional house living to a full time nomadic lifestyle out of a single axle, 6' X 12' self converted cargo trailer and 2009 Hyundai, Santa Fe, AWD, V6 tow vehicle [I always hear James T. Kirk's voice in my head saying, ...on a five year mission... LOL!]. :)
I am a retired, 63 year old, not quite divorced male with two daughters and a son. I have begun a fantastic, new relationship with a beautiful gal in the south and it is starting out like nothing I have ever experienced! I expect that we will be traveling together in the very near future, and the effluent of those travels will be chronicled here.
A very potential, future goal is to buy land to homestead on. Hopefully here in Idaho, or anywhere that is beautiful and arable with ample sun and water.

Finding Arrowheads and Stone Artifacts in the Desert - Original Bushcraft Tools
Finding Arrowheads and Stone Artifacts in the Desert - Original Bushcraft Tools
I find a lot of arrowheads and stone artifacts during my time in the desert country around my home. Most of the time I don't even pick them up. Sometimes if I'm on one of the large ranches I hike not, and I find a perfect one, I will keep it. But the ones on public land, and the broken ones I just leave lie.
But I think arrowheads and other artifacts tell a cool story of the past. I like to think about the men of old doing some of the same bushcraft tasks as I do today, but with those stone tools I find lying around the desert.
Hope you enjoy!
