About This Project
Since 2001 the New Jersey State Museum has conducted field research in Montana and Wyoming in an area that was the site of many famed expeditions. The Paleontology Field School will allow the backers to become field assistants for 6 days in July where we will find, collect, and document fossils such as dinosaurs, crocodiles, and turtles, from rocks of both Cretaceous and Paleogene age. To participate each backer must contribute $1300 which includes lodging and food.
