Aurora Fossil Festival 2013

Hey everyone! This is my first post on this forum, so I hope you enjoy it! I left the house around 8 and arrived at the festival around 11:30. It was a great day with a nice temperature. I met my friend Zachj there and we surface collected the parking lot all day long. There were teeth everywhere! I used knee pads and just crawled all over the material picking up one tooth after the other.  There were so many I couldn't film picking them all up. After a while, Zach went to go get a hotdog, but I stayed in the parking lot picking up teeth. A guy approached me and asked me how the collecting was I replied "I found a nice lower mako and a couple other decent ones" He said something like that's nice and then he asked me if I wanted to pick a couple teeth out of his goodie bag. I was so shocked for a second I thought it was a joke. I turned my head to the side to find out if he was pulling my leg or not. I asked him if he was serious. He said yeah, so I took the bag from him and looked inside. Looking inside, I saw a bunch of frags of teeth and a couple of nice ones. I picked out a nice Isurus Hastalis and a Isurus Retroflexis. I also saw a desori in the bag, but for some reason I didn't pick the desori. I don't even have a desori and looking back on it I wish I would have picked out the desori. O well. It dosen't really matter, I got 2 free teeth! The teeth weren't perfect, in-fact they were shamer teeth, but they are still quite nice for getting them for free. After a couple more hours of surface collecting, I moved to the piles. I brought a 20 gallon tub with about 5 gallons of water. I sifted the piles using the water so that I could separate the dirt from the teeth more easily. The finds from the piles weren't that great, so I decided that next year I would just surface collect the whole time. During the festival I caught up with Bill Eberlin (Megateeth) and Meg Hunter Al. Both of them are really cool guys. I even got their autographs! Next year I will take some more video of other peoples finds! Hope to see some of you there.

Here's the video!
