点评:This was an unexpected highlight of our trip to Tetons and Yellowstone. We found this online and planned this as a way to break up our drive from Salt Lake City. Michael managed to fit us into the schedule, and then modified that visit when we were unexpectedly delayed getting to the site.
JJ was our guide at the dig, and we had a great time digging through the layers and looking for fossils. After a couple hours collecting various samples, we went back to the shop area where he cut the fossils down to size. We then packed up the fossils to take home (with some extra attention from security at the TSA line!).
While we did not find any large fish, we found a large number of smaller fish and had a great time! Michael could not have been more accommodating with the scheduling, and JJ was a wonderful guide from start to finish. If you are any where near Kemmerer it is well worth a stop at Ulrich's to do your own fossil dig!
翻译:这真是我们大提顿和黄石之旅中一个意想不到的亮点。我们在网上发现了这个化石挖掘点,并计划把它作为从盐湖城出发途中休息一下的方式。迈克尔设法安排了我们的行程,后来由于我们意外耽搁,他又调整了我们的参观时间。
JJ是我们的挖掘向导,我们玩得非常开心,一层层地挖掘,寻找化石。收集了几个小时的各种样本后,我们回到工作室,他把化石切割成合适的尺寸。然后我们把化石打包带回家(在机场安检时还受到了安检人员的“特别关注”!)。
虽然我们没有找到大型鱼类,但我们找到了很多小型鱼类,玩得非常尽兴!迈克尔在安排行程方面非常周到,JJ从头到尾都是一位非常棒的向导。如果你在凯默勒附近,一定要去乌尔里希化石挖掘点体验一下自己的化石挖掘之旅!
