I am absolutely thrilled with my experience with In Stone Fossil. From start to finish, their service was nothing short of exceptional. The team consistently goes above and beyond, demonstrating an impressive blend of professionalism and genuine care.

I was worried about making my Grandfather's 91st birthday wish. The fact that we were able to have a guide and not a large group, made me feel at ease. Dean & Gary, you made an old man's experience the best. I can't thank you enough!

Their unwavering commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. Their attention to detail and proactive approach ensured that all my needs were met promptly and efficiently. Every interaction, whether with customer service or support staff, was handled with the utmost respect and competence.

Additionally, the innovation and expertise displayed are truly commendable. Their products/services not only meet but exceed industry standards, making them a standout in their field. It's clear that they are dedicated to continuous improvement and excellence.

I highly recommend In Stone Fossil to anyone seeking top-notch experience digging for fossils. Their dedication to their customers and their exceptional standards make them a leader in their industry. Kudos to the entire team for a job extraordinarily well done!

Incredible experience! From start to finish the trip with In Stone Fossils was amazing! My spontaneity hit at 7:30PM the night before I wanted to surprise my partner with a dig in Kemmerer. After some research I decided that In Stone was the place for us. In Stone offers private trips making the experience extremly educational and personal. I reached out on instagram thinking “no way this is going to work” to my surprise Dean made it happen! Our time onsite was grand. We were given thorough instruction, advice, knowledge and tools to dig and found an array of fish that dean cut down for us to take home. Such an wonderful experience. Oh! Also, the sandwiches for lunch were great as well, a bit fancy and delicious (: Thank you Dean and everyone at In Stone!

A must stop! A wonderfully knowledgeable couple run this amazing shrine to all things Fossil! From purchasing fossils to private tours to the quarry for your own dig. They have you covered. We are looking forward to our Private night Dig coming this July 2025!

The 5 star reviews of this spot peaked our interest and we had to go check it out. My wife was able to chip away at her own trilobites as advertised. She was able to pick out her own rock to chip away at to find her fossilized prizes, perfect for us two who were just passing through and not able to go to one of the guided digs.

Inside the shop we were able to pick from a selection of raw and "polished" minerals, including some fossilized teeth, bones, and prepared fossils. Some beautiful pieces line the shop's exterior, highlighting beautiful selections of petrified wood, raw rocks and minerals.

We were even able to find and crack a beautiful geode (make sure to grab one that "jingles" when you shake it). Bring a little patience and a little elbow grease to this spot to find your treasures.

We look forward to stopping here again on our next trip!

We learned so much about digging fossils! Our guides stayed with us the entire time and helped us determine what we found, how to split the stones effectively and how to take the slabs from the ground correctly. Afterwards they professionally cut our finds. A delicious lunch was included in this private tour and our handlers were amazing. Did a dig in Kemmerer years ago and we have to say they paled by comparison. Best tour we’re ever done! Their gallery was small but amazing. A must stop even if you don’t take a tour. We hope to come back for one of their night time tours in the future.

My husband and I had a wonderful day digging for fossils with Gary and Dave. They gave us a demonstration on how to dig out the fossils so we could have the best chance of preserving the fossils we found. They have many years of experience in this arena and were able to answer any questions we had. We were able to dig several hours at the site and we were provided a wonderful sack lunch from the local Opera House Store.
Lisa was so helpful at the shop and we made an instant friendship with her! She wanted to make sure we got all the way back to Texas with our fossils intact because we had another week of vacation and we were worried the fossils might break with the long travel. She spent time with us and helped us figure out how to pack and wrap our fossils to keep them safe. These nice folks were so easy to talk to. Thank you for a superb dig day with In Stone Fossils!!!!
We will refer your business to our friends and we will be back one day to visit.

This store is super cool. Me and my buddy stopped by the store in Kremmerer and were very pleased we did! They had crazy fossils including an Ice Age Rhino. Many found locally.

The lady at the cashier was very nice and friendly. The prices at this spot are fair and the exhibit is beautiful. We spent about ten minutes here and really enjoyed our experience.
