#and then we went hunting for fossil crabs in the Pierre shale at a spot near where I visited to look over the summer

I am back from the field course! Saw so many cool things and I cannot wait to go back with all of my new knowledge of formations and localities

#today we hit up two of the spots i was most excited for #a Fox hills butte thst exposes the bullhead member #which had tonsss of oysters #it also had ripple marks and some beach facies which was soooooo cool #and then we went hunting for fossil crabs in the Pierre shale at a spot near where I visited to look over the summer #and I found a bunch which is so exciting because I did not find any last time #and some of what we think are root casts which is super cool #honestly it was so fun I’m really glad I went even though I was sick the first three days #masked of course but still quite miserable
