Briggs and Deep Springs Road Quarries 7/1/19

[Monica]

The trilobites and phyllocarid are great, but I love the gastropod and two-valved bivalve - WOW!!!

I finally had some time to take some photos of my finds. 

While not nearly as impressive as Jeff's finds, I did OK. 

A few keepers, at least.

The best part of the day was the company, and getting to see Jeff find some really nice things. 

He usually has to watch me find cool things, so it was a nice change of pace.  

 

Here are a few of my finds from the trip... 

 

Briggs Road: 

A tiny roller Eldredgeops rana, ... 

 

    

 

A slightly larger roller: 

 

 

 

A headless prone : 

 

 

Deep Springs Road: 

 

Unidentified Gastropod, ...                                                                                                   Spyroceras sp cephalopod: 

 

                                  

 

 

Unfortunately, ... some other finds didn't survive the attempted prep.   

 

All in all, it was great to get out, and spend time hunting with a good buddy.

Cool finds Tim. That Eldredgeops is a winner and the gastropod is a rare DSR find. Your company was the best part of the trip. Congratulations.
