Gettin down at Lee Creek

I was ready and determined to do a lot better than my first trip into the PCS mine. I walked and crawled over the pungo picking up small teeth non stop for the first half of the day. Then it was time to do some digging on the Yorktown. I was digging in an area with some good Yorktown deposits. A few feet away from me a guy unearthed three megs and two of them were over four inches. I was finding a lot of bone and pulling out a few large whale vertebrae as well. I was almost sure I would unearth a meg as well in that area, but no blades or big roots would show in the end. One of the cooler finds was a benedini, but unfortunately it had root rot. I did take some cool ground shots of teeth as well as a few ground shots of da f0ssZ's teeth that he happened to find when we were collecting right near each other.
