A nose by any other name would smell as sweet. Just a rock that amused me.

This is a large chirotherium track. It’s crappy but it is the first one I found in a new area so that is promising.

[jameslang209]

Approximately one quarter of a billion years between the petrified wood and current wood.

[jameslang209]

These are Chirotherium rex tracks. The blue are the pes or rear, the red is a manus or front. These are deformed due to a very liquid substrate.

[jameslang209]

This is a partial amphibian jawbone. The two circular objects are the roots of fang or tusk like teeth. Below that is a row of smaller teeth.

Out exploring and found this interesting piece of sandstone.

[jameslang209]

It is no longer unseasonably warm

[jameslang209]

A nice piece of petrified wood. I find basically two colors - this natural wood and a purple ish color that comes from manganese. Probably 240-220 mya.

I don’t know what these shapes are. Possibly vegetation or roots of some kind. 240 mya. Middle Triassic

[jameslang209]

My home. My bedroom view. No people. Life has been worse.

[jameslang209]

These are very large chirothere manus (front) footprints.

[jameslang209]

This is a tiny chirothere pes (rear) footprint. 240 mya. Middle Triassic.

[jameslang209]

Found this chirothere rear track today. 240 mya. Middle Triassic

[jameslang209]

Two sets of tracks from different animals. In blue a smaller chirothere front and rear set. In red a much larger chirothere front and rear set. 240 mya. Middle Triassic. Moenkopi Formation.

Three Indigenous artifacts. These were donated to the Museum of Indigenous People in Prescott Arizona.

This is part of my Chirotherium rex trackway. 30’ of the best went to the museum.
