  • Way out in West Texas, you find the Chihuahuan Desert, full of ancient goodies to be found! In today's video, I take you along as I explore an area full of hadrosaur bones, fossil turtle shell, agate, petrified wood, marine fossils, and lots of neat rocks.
    This location is a recent discovery and will be studied by researchers. Please don't ask for a location, because I can't (and won't) share it. We didn't collect a single specimen, not even the rocks, to allow scientists first dibs on what they find to be important. Preserving the resource is the first goal, and I feel lucky to have been able to tag along on this trip to see such cool fossils.

    I live in East Texas but when I was a little kid we had relatives up in the panhandle that had a big ranch. I remember us riding one day in the pickups probably a good half hour across this ranch through dry River beds and then into an area with lots of petrified wood. I was probably 9 years old and came back home with a number to wash tub size load a petrified wood pieces some of which about a foot and a half long and 16 in around all the way down to tiny fragments. Still have some and I am 65 years old now.,👍🏻

      That's a great story! Thank you for sharing it. I'm also really happy you still have some of those pieces. They're not easy to move but I think it's worth it. My movers probably disagree.

    I understand not collecting dino bones and petrified wood. Did you take any agates?

    • @AngieDoesStuff
      @AngieDoesStuff  2 года назад

      No, because we didn't have permission to collect anything. I picked up 4 quarts of agates a few days prior, though, so I was ok with that!

    Is there an extinct volcano close

    • @AngieDoesStuff
      @AngieDoesStuff  2 года назад

      Yes! Sierra Quemada and Pine Canyon were volcanoes and there is evidence of many mini-volcanoes (or vents) as well. They were most active 45 to 30 million years ago.

      You can tell by the way the fossils formed.
