Lower Devonian 5

The Lower Devonian site which I've mentioned on a few occasions.

Yes, the outcrop is at a 65 deg. Angle and is within a few feet of tracks with trains
flying by at 60+ MPH.

I'm truly fortunate to be living in this part of NY. When you look at a large scale map
of NY, Orange County appears to only contain Pre-Cambrian marble, calcite, etc.
When you look at a map with a small scale all manner of bedrock outcrops appear.
I've been to the Lower Devonian and Mid-Ordovician and will soon visit the
Lower Cambrian....1 mile from my house. Are you jealous?
