fossilnoob Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Was on my way back to work today to clock out and my soda fell over. So I pulled to the side of the road and looked over,and noticed a very small road cut style look to the side of the road. So I raced back to work to clock out and went and did a little slow drive by to scope it out. I jumped out of the jeep to take a quick peek and found a few things. Hopefully this spot will turn out better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fossilnoob Posted December 20, 2011 Author Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) and lastly! I plan to ride my bike up to this spot on my next day off. Oh and ask the cops around town for the OK. Edited December 20, 2011 by fossilnoob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 That spot deserves a good looking-over!

fossilnoob Posted December 21, 2011 Author Share Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) Trying to find that out, found a old newspaper clipping that states that use to be a quarry that of devonian period. But I just got the OK from a police officer I just spotted at work! As long as I don't park there. Whoo-oo!

squalicorax Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 nice Silurian dolomite, looks to be a possible crinoid calyx in that second picture.

Kehbe Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I love places to hunt that are close to work! I have a particularly good spot that I can get to in about 10 minutes! Close enough to do some lunch hour hunting! It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change.
