5-9-22 Lower Silurian Red Mountain Formation- Dalton, Georgia
Nimravis posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
Today I made a quick stop to a very small exposure of the Lower Silurian, Red Mountain Formation that is found along Dug Gap Battle Road in Dalton, Georgia. It is a nice place to stop for a few minutes. One of the nice things about this site, is the area where I park my car ,which is across the street. Here is a pic of the site- A couple closer up pics- A pic of me that my wife took from the parking area. Here are some of my finds-- 14 replies

Yesterday I stopped at a road cut that I had seen on the internet. The road cut is located on Dug Gap Mountain Road in Dalton, Georgia. To be honest, I do not know anything about this the age of this formation or the shell imprints that are in the matrix, which I believe to be a mudstone. The only thing I found were imprints of small shells and a live Georgia scorpion. If anyone has information on this site, I would appreciate it. Here are some pics of the area , the scorpion and my finds.
