I want to tell you about a weekend fossil hunting trip I took a few weeks ago. It was a cold, but sunny Saturday in December. I live about three and one half hours from the beach I was planning on visiting, so I started out rather early, about 4:30am. I was going to Edisto Beach State Park in South Carolina.
This was a trip I had been anticipating for quite some time. Because I live in South Carolina, most of my fossil hunting trips have been limited to the beaches of my state. I had not visited Edisto Beach before this. The majority of my trips have been to the beaches of Myrtle Beach and Hunting Island. I had read that Edisto Beach State Park was an excellent beach to hunt fossils so naturally I was eager to visit.
First, a little history about my fossil hunting. Some twenty years ago or so I was invited to go to the beach with an aunt. During the trip, Aunt Nita introduced me to hunting sharks teeth. Maybe I was a little young, but I did not enjoy this past time. Several years later, I was walking along the beach and happened to look down and see a sharks tooth. I reached to pick it up and suddenly remembered the excitement my Aunt Nita displayed upon finding a sharks tooth. I must have been about 20. That was 23 years ago. Today, I don’t miss an opportunity to go fossil hunting.
This particular Saturday was before Christmas and the weather forecast was for a clear, sunny and cold day. I imagined this would be an excellent time to hunt fossils. I was right! We arrived around 8:30am and bundled ourselves to protect against the cold and began our expedition! I was really happy to see the many shell beds up and down the coast! I have pictures at my website. We began walking up the beach toward the campground. There was no one on the beach and we soon started finding sharks teeth and some petrified wood. There was also an abundance of shells some of which I couldn’t pass up.
As the morning turned into afternoon, the temperature rose enough that we were able to shed our heavy coats and stocking hats. We were now beachcombing in light jackets under beautiful blue skies. By now, other people were coming to the beach, probably from the campground. We left the beach heading home about 3:30pm.
We had a great experience at Edisto. We found many fine specimens to add to our collection. I have had good luck finding sharks teeth and petrified wood at both Myrtle Beach and Hunting Island. Now I can add Edisto Beach State Park to my list of great beaches to find fossils.
We found 34 sharks teeth, numerous bits of petrified wood and an excellent vertebrae specimen. I was very happy with the days take and was already planning another trip. I have pictures of Edisto Beach and our finds at my website http://www.saturdayafternoonhobbies.com

Vancouver Island has long been considered a world-class bear hunting destination. The island has long been known for it’s great trophy-sized bear and the high population of animals in the area. It’s not uncommon to see a bear or two grazing on the side of the road. What’s also interesting to note is that the bear on Vancouver Island were discovered to be a separate sub-species of the black bear, called the Island Bear.
Open season for Vancouver Island bear hunting is April 15 through June 15 in the spring, and September 10 through October 31 in the fall. It’s important to know when planning your trip to Vancouver Island that the climate will fluctuate greatly. A hunter should expect a temperate rain forest with precipitation very common nearly ever day of the hunt. Temperatures can also fluctuate greatly with daytime highs in April of 65 degrees Fahrenheit, and lows of 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
With these fluctuating temperatures and weather conditions kept in mind, a hunter needs to pack accordingly. While it isn’t easy to predict what the hunter may need, the one thing to count on is a full body rain suit. Otherwise, take suggestions from your guide service, as they’ll not only be able to tell you what to bring depending upon the season, but also they’ll know what weather has been like recently.
British Columbia, the province in which Vancouver Island is located, boasts the greatest population of black bears in North America, and Vancouver Island has the greatest density of them. Game records also indicate that the island has the most successful hunts. The reason that Vancouver Island has such a plentiful bear population is because of the great conservation efforts of the area. Game management is the highest priority and for good reason, the local economy depends greatly on the influx of hunters every season. The island also produces record sized bears reaching as high as seven feet in height. The island bear has no color phases, though the rare bear might be seen that is jet black with a white strip on the chest. Hunting for Vancouver Island bear can be the greatest black bear hunting experience in North America, and offers the hunter beautiful terrain on top of it. With a little planning and research a hunter can be off for his island bear hunting trip next season.
