Hi Everyone, this is my first post and I like to thank you for your information. I will be traveling to the US in October. I'm going to travel in my car from Los Angeles, las vegas, Flagstaff, Albuquerque, Amarillo, Oklahoma, Memphis, New Orleans, Panama City, Sarasota, and Orlando.

Hello! I live in Las Vegas and I love fossil hunting in Frenchman Mountain, the there are trilobites everywhere, I finaly found a full body trilobite there, can you guys I.D this one for me? I am pretty sure they are Olenellus nevadensis, because they are common in Nevada (who would have guessed that?) but I am far from an expert.

If anyone wants a good fossil hunting place in Southern NV that is the place, it is owned by the BLM so you can take most fossils you find.

Found these trace fossils and possible pseudo fossils at an exposure of the Pioche Shale, Early Cambrian, just outside Las Vegas, Nevada on 6/29/14. A little help with the IDs would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
