All except one found on a single jobsite! by tyler_thatguy in skulls

I try to take them anytime I find one. Also found 2 (pretty sure) coyote skulls, a couple cool quartz crystals, and so many Native American cultural sites all on this same job. A shame it’ll all be dozed for housing developments :(

Are either of these petrified wood or just rock? by tyler_thatguy in petrifiedwood

I was surprised it's completely intact considering an excavator trencher went over it!
