Wow, that’s a cool shot. Nice find.
Great photos, Jack. If you haven’t read it yet, I highly recommend Givens’s Eocene Molluscan Biostratigraphy of the Pine Mountain Area. Thorough explanations of a lot of the fossils near the road and along the Chorro area, but also those along the Piedra Blanca NRT and some of the less-explored corners. Sweet stuff.
Thanks. I’ll have to take a look.
Awesome!
