Mazon Creek Id Needed Please

I thought this to be a very defined trail with signs of locomotion. But it looks more like "body segments". Then I thought Shrimp, but it looks too "wormy" to be a shrimp. It also is preserved in an arch, which says all of thee above......ugh. This is from pit 11.

All opinions are welcomed.

And as always, it's much appreciated, TFF.

It's hard to see, but there is a US dime placed in the first picture.

It looks to me like a clam trail. I have similar specimens with the clam preserved

Thanks Rob.

That was my first ID that came to mind. It's kinda neat to see the locomotion of it moving through the mud.

A trail with its maker preserved; Great Googly Moogly!
