Hiking on the muddy Calvert Cliffs Red Trail at Calvert Cliffs State Park in MD The trail is about a 2-mile walk to the Chesapeake Bay. Once at the shore of the bay, it is a great place to search for sharks' teeth | Wandering Out Yonder

Calvert Cliffs State Park is home to the cliffs of the same name which are famous for their abundance of fossils. During the Miocene, roughly 20 to 10 million years ago, much of the East Coast was underwater. Shells and bones from the prehistoric sharks, whales, seabirds and invertebrates were buried in the sand and mud. Millions of years later, the ocean retreated, revealing the cliffs that hold those remains. Let’s not forget Skipjack & Sailor 🐾🐾😜. #calvertcliffs #chesapeakestylemagazine #F
