Dinosaur Fossil & 2 Half-Day Adult Dig Passes (kids dig free with paid adult)

7-inch fossil of dinosaur bone – likely from an Edmontosaurus (a large herbivorous dinosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous period) – assembled from fragments found in the Glendive, Montana area. Plus 2 half-day passes (valued at $80 each) to Baisch’s Dinosaur Digs, LLC, in Glendive, Montana. Children 12 and under are free with a paying adult. Digs are by reservation only. Guided digs can go out from April through October, depending on weather and conditions.

 

Baisch’s Dinosaur Digs conducts paleontological day trips on a privately owned ranch, within view of Makoshika State Park, and just a few miles from the town of Glendive. Much of the ranch is composed of the highly eroded gumbo of the badlands that is rich in fossil. Take home dinosaur fossils, petrified wood, colorful rocks and precious memories from a day in the Eastern Montana badlands. Play paleontologist while you hunt for and excavate triceratops, edmontosaurus, and the elusive T-rex.

 

Experienced guides will show you what to look for, how to excavate fossils if you find any and how to cast or prepare them. Tools are supplied for collecting. With some exceptions, you are generally allowed to keep the fossils you find.
