1. Mahatango Formation

   Here is my collection of Mahatango material. This sub unit of the Hamilton group crops out in many places across Pennsylvania, becoming more siliter as you work west in the state (more shallow/closer to the shore). Most of my collecting has taken place in the Trilobite rich Centerfield Member, but I have also came across nice prone trilobites rarely in the Niss Hollow member,  Beautiful and articulated echinoderms are able to be found in the Little Gap member, this has been the focus of my recent efforts in this unit.
