henpecked Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 (edited) The wife and I finally got to explore a hill that I had been looking at for years. This was in early September of 2016. The back roads of Northern Colorado enjoy the scenery. Didn't take very long to start finding things. All I had with me was a water bottle for size. The ridge we were standing on.

henpecked Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share Posted May 12, 2018 I was limited to the top of the ridge as I was on crutches. Broken Femurs are no fun. I spotted a pink object laying in the dirt. Thought it was maybe some rose quarts which would have been out of place on this hill. Ended up being a fossilized bone. View of the top, and a view of the bottom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
