South Carolina Fossil Hunt

The Cooper River in South Carolina holds hidden treasures! 

The cool water, fast current and limited visibility don't sound too inviting, but they are for fossil hunters looking to find the toothy remains of the giant megalodon shark and other ancient creatures!

Some interesting facts about the megalodon:
The megalodon lived between 16 and 1.6 million years ago and was the largest fish to ever roam the seas.  Estimations of megalodon's size are between 40 and 52 ft long, and 20 to 30 tons.  Megalodon teeth can measure up to 6.61 inches in length!

Here's a few photos from the last Cooper River trip.  Hopefully they don't scare anyone off.  It was cold last time!

Ah, I see, your out in Madison!  You seem to come up with some of the more interesting trips I've seen posted about.  How was this fossil dive?  This sounds like a good time!

Unfortunately, we had to cancel the trip in April.  When they went before, they had a great time.  You almost always come out with a bunch of teeth at the very least.

Hopefully, we can try it again.
