This trilobite pygidium was found in a talus slope at base of Fossil Mountain in Western Utah. As you can see it is quite weathered. I found it about 25 years ago when my mom and I went back country driving in my Ford Tempo lol. That car went into a number of not car friendly areas haha. From what I know of area geology I believe it would be Ordovician in age

Hi Everyone I found this Trilo in the scree on the shoulders of Fossil Mountain in Utah about 7 years ago. I have looked for its source higher up on the mountain the last few times I went there and could never find another. Can anyone ID it? It is the biggest and most intact specimen I have ever found at that site and would be curious to know what it is. Thanks for your help.

As I announced a while back I am planning a trip out to Utah for late August/ early September. I plan on spending two days in the Delta area prospecting for trilobites and other fossils in the paleozoic rocks of the region. I keep seeing references to Fossil Mountain and that it has Ordovician fossils but is it worth the trip? Will I be finding slabs with fossils or loose fossils or a combination of the two? Considering that I have to mail all my finds back home to Philadelphia I don't want to ship large quantities of fossil hash that will just wind up in my garden. Anyone have some material they have collected that they can post a picture of? Thank you in advance. -Dave
