Explore mountains, bluffs, buttes, canyons, river banks, deserts, cliffs or eroded hillsides. The Bureau of Land Management oversees public lands where access and fossil hunting is allowed. Be aware not to trespass on private property, and don't disturb protected lands in State and National Parks. Be aware of the value of fossils in our understanding of life on Earth. Taking fossils can potentially destroy the value of a site.
Cliffs can be very dangerous.
No fossil is worth getting hurt over.
