Geocache Description:

Holey Moley! A Dino Bone Dig Site!!

A fun cache for Kids of All Ages! A story cache.

Back in 1974, while studying Dinosaur Linguistics (Dino Speak), and Dinosaur Logistics (The movement of Dino herds.) I was able to participate on several Michigan Dinosaur Digs, before I dropped out from Dino University.......


If you drive in from the south , it is a nice trip and more scenic.

After abandoning this site we moved north to a bridge dig site. See GC4K88F for our next dig.

This area was at the edge of a large 200 square mile marsh, 67,000,000 years ago. We dug this area and I have placed some of my dinosaur bones near the cache from my dino bone collection. Kids can take a bone home with them if they would like to do so. The cache is a small lock n lock, filled with good stuff. Also, a small real pumpkin for the FTF. Many bones are from a Macrophalansia. ( In my opinion.)

DINOSAUR FACTS:

Macrophalansia-
Meet Eaters, Fast! They could hit 40 KM / Hr in speed! Great sense of smell. They could smell prey from 3 KM away! They had infrared sense and hunted during the day and night! Hunted in packs from 10 to 20 units. 1200 to 2270 lbs. each in weight. Always Hungry!

Majungatholus- Plant Eaters, 7' Tall, 9'8" Long, 375 Lbs. Slow, A herd of over 6 was rare. Liked water areas. A dangerous area to be around. Moving top speed~ 12 MPH. , Likes Salads. (Hard on trees in their area.) I might not like this type of dinosaur!

Don't worry moms, these bones have no germs. They are over 67,000,000 years old from the late Cretaceous Period.
