Recommended Gear and Books for Fossil Hunting



INCLY Amazon Store: Rock Hounding Gear

INCLY provides budget-friendly rock hounding gear, ranging from the widely favored (4.6/5 stars) 15-piece Geology kit featured in the image to compact 4 and 5-piece sets. These tools are ideal for fossil and mineral collecting, particularly in harder matrixes and shale.



Roadside Geology Series Books by Mountain Press

The Roadside Geology Series offers state-specific paperback books, serving as valuable mile-by-mile guides with detailed maps and illustrations. Despite not pinpointing fossil hunting spots, these affordable books enhance understanding of regional geology. Highly recommended for fossil hunters, I've personally enjoyed the Maryland, Virginia, and Pennsylvania editions.



101 American Fossil Sites You've Gotta See
Albert B Dickas, 2018


This is a great updated fossil sites book with at least one fossil site in each state. Each site is broken into 2 pages. One has detailed information, such as directions, GPS coordinates, formation information, etc... The other is dedicated to images of the site and the fossils found there. It also gives information on fossil 'viewing' sites such as dinosaur trackways, museums, and active excavations.
Plus, my fossil photos are peppered throughout this book!
