Any fossil hunters on here?

I thought it would be fun to take the kids to look for Trilobites. I've found info that there are beds in the Wellsville Mountains but the directions are pretty vague. Anyone have some specific directions they could provide?

Thanks

We have done all of our trilobite hunting out west of Delta near antelope springs. You can drive right to the beds where you find them. I have talked to one of the Gunthers (well known trilobite experts) up in Brigham City and they get them up in the mountains above there but they have permission to get there through private land. As I understand it the average guy has quite a hike to get up where the good ones are.
