Summer roadtrip teaser, Glendive, MT ammonite

I won't get to do much posting from the road, but since Mike opened the door showing off some of the wisconsin ordovician finds he found and helped my wife and I collect, I figured I would add a teaser from Glendive, Montana where I finally found my first ammonites in the Pierre shale south of town.  This little guy was one of my favorite singles because its exposed on one side and completely encrusted with yellow selenite crystals on the other.

I will take some clearer pics once we get home and get pieces cleaned up a little

Nice!!! Those selenite crystals are a lovely backdrop to your ammonite! I have a Kolihapeltis just like that. Really, really neat find! :drool:
