Picked up this stone a few years back while visiting the area north of Traverse City on Lake Michigan. Lots of Petosky stones on this beach, but this really looked unusual. I’ve had some time to look at it while at home lately and wondered if anyone had any ideas? So curious because of the triangular shapes and line patterns.

A warm welcome to TFF from Austin, Tx. 

 

As to your specimen, I believe it is geological in nature, not a fossil.  It is, nonetheless, a very interesting rock and one that I would keep and place on my "weird rocks" shelf.

 

Again, welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the Forum. :)

 

Definitely geologic in nature.

You might look into counter septarian structures.

Also eroded or water worn boxwork could be a possibility.
