Up to the Appalachian plateau

Recommended Posts

My first time in a long time past the Allegheny front up onto the Appalachian plateau in Tucker County West Va. I’d never been to Dolly Sods  wilderness, so this was a real treat.

Of course, it was not all about the hiking... I’m a piedmont guy, used to sharks teeth, and maybe some Devonian fossils , but was excited to maybe pick up some Carboniferous plants ... and I’m pleased with these few specimens... from the Pottsville group, not sure which member.

These were collected from a well known

roadside location.. not within any of the parks or natural areas.
