Sal Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Here are a few pics of some of the Crinoids I found at Perdenales Falls State Park in Central Texas. The rocks are from the Pennsylvanian Period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeD Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Nice. I don't recall seeing any fossils when I was there, but I was mainly trying not to trip and fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracer Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 well, sal, you just indirectly answered a question i've wondered about for some time, and forgot to ever research until now. i'm usually not hanging out in state parks because i'd rather be collecting fossils somewhere, but i do love pedernales falls. i'm not sure why but i'd never researched its geology. a couple of years ago i photographed this rock there... this rock didn't "fit in" to my worldview of the area at all, and now i know why. i was hanging out in the cretaceous, but just upstream was pennsylvanian and the ordovician. go you! go ordo! geologic map Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
