Another Where Am I

[old dead things]

While returning from another fossil collecting trip, photos posted later, I took a photo of this geological formation. Can you name the site and the state? I'm off to North Dakota, (collecting with FF member Bev is on the agenda) so will check in when I can.

PS: Albuquerque Rock and Fossil show is coming the first weekend in October, I'll be there, hope some members will be also. More on this later.

I have to guess Chile Fm. but can't guess site or state... Say Hi to Bev for me!

Wherever that is, it's prettier than Lakewood, NJ.

Wyoming; something something about a lot of elk. the dirt road at the bottom is a nice drive (if it's dry....!)

Chugwater Formation, Wyoming?

[Missourian]

Spearfish Formation around the Black Hills (north or west side)?

The beginning of the Grand Canyon many millions of years ago?

Okay we got a few partially correct responses and I may be away from the computer for a few days..............it is Red Canyon (some times called the Red Rim) in west central Wyoming at the foothills of the Wind River Mountains and is the Chugwater formation. The canyon is just north of South Pass between Farson and Lander. I have driven past it many times and finally stopped and took a picture.

Hey o.d.t. I hope you have a fossil fuel bearing outcrop at your disposal. You burn some miles man

Dang it, Jim. I didn't get a chance to be right. But I will add that a lot of this is owned by the nature conservancy.
