grandpa Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 You remind me of - well - me. I love to collect what I call "fossilized weather". My small collection in this category includes such things as ripple marks. raindrop pockmarks, and mud cracks. Unique and fun specimens you have there. Thanks for sharing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilNerd Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 I love these things! They are definitely on my bucket list of something to add to my collection. Thanks for sharing. Very cool!

Allosaurus Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I love ripple marks and mud cracks. There's a site close to me that produces a bunch of them. I have so many lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrangellian Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I like them too.. a little snapshot of the environment so far back in time. I picked up some Precambrian ones on my recent trip to Eastern B.C. - not as nice as these but much older, I'm willing to bet. (What age are these ones?)

RetiredLawyer Posted September 4, 2019 Author Share Posted September 4, 2019 I’m guessing they are Triassic since they seem to be in the same rock as the footprints I found nearby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeepTimeIsotopes Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 If it’s Moenkopi then it’s definitely Triassic. No dino footprints in the Precambrian. Although, if you do find dinosaur footprints in the Precambrian put me as second author on the publication you write.
