Unknown fossil Utah, Cambrian?

Not sure what this could be. I am pretty sure this is cambrian maxfield formation. Any guesses? (It might be possible that it is one of the other carboniferous limestones that lay above, but those usually look different and have different fossils)

Looks similar to Yuknessia which has been reported from the Marjum, Spence and Wheeler formations.
