Jan is wondering just exactly how we plan to pull this off. Perhaps he made a hasty decision to come along, as the others didn't seem to be giving any thought to the difficulty of what we were proposing. The river is down an extremely steep slope.
I knew it, I knew it, I knew it, look what they've gotten me into now! Just getting started up the steep bank. Worn out from the distance already covered, and soaking wet from the recent rain shower. But it was fun, and we had our adventure for the day!

Carefully examining the ground around the newly spotted mosasaur fossil
People gather around where a mosasaur was found, while James Lamb points out parts of the skeleton.
The gullies are extensive, and the fossils blend in with the soil, so eagle eyes are sometimes necessary.
