Weiser Ridge Hike

Yesterday I hiked to the Weiser Ridge area and the site of an old Weiser Gypsum Quarry. This is the second time I hiked to this area and like it a lot. We always are able to find rock specimens containing sea fossils, dendrite and other interesting compositions. The rock in the picture on the left that my hiking partner and I found is a beautiful example of what can be found here. It contained dozens of fossilized sea shells. Unfortunately, it was about 18 inches square and about six inches thick, and weighed way to much for us to carry out. Check out some of the pictures I captured on this hike here … Weiser Ridge and Quarry.
