minnbuckeye Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Great specimen! Did you find that yourself? If so, was it on the 3071 BIG road cut? I was there a month ago and failed to find anything I was after. It rained inches turning things into a slippery mud slope that got the best of me trying to access upper layers.
