September Field Trip to Gray Mountain

Author

September’s field trip was well attended and productive, eight club members departed from the Market at Silver Saddle and State Route 89  for Gray Mountain. Upon our arrival to the area, Andrea Eubanks led the way to our primary collecting site, winding through geologic sandstone formations to a plateau above the Little Colorado River . There we fanned out across a wide area finding  broken pieces of Petrified Wood left behind by a massive flood eon’s ago. Our recent rains helped uncover some cut-able prizes.

Members present, included Andrea, Gordon, Alan, Loewn, John & Beth and Marty & Linda.
