Spectacular finds as usual. The cone is stunning--please consider giving it a wider audience here on the forum by entering it into this month's FOTM contest. :)

 

 

Cheers.

Congratulations. The details on those plants you found is very impressive. The cross section of the cone would be a worthy FOTM entry.

Neat plants!

Opalised fossils are the best: a wonderful mix between paleontology and mineralogy!

Very nice pieces!! I’m hoping to make a trip back to Oregon where a friend has a nice secluded place. They find a ton of fossil plants on his property.  Great pieces
