This website or the contributor can't guarantee the information here to be accurate or to be up-to-date, although that is the intention for the data. Illegal activity or property damage is not the responsibility of this website, but each visitor is encouraged to review the Rockhound Code of Ethics. Each website visitor is advised also to consider reference sources listed and outside sources in their research before visiting the location.
Location Type: Public Access
Details: Information about finding this crystalline fossil called biconoids can be found on findarock.com. On someone's blog, you can also find fossilized whale bones in the Templeton area. However, I think California law may say that you can't collect fossils with vertabrae. It may have been on the BLM website.
Directions: It mentions the fields around a Templeton hospital on Las Tablas road to the west of highway 101.
