What an interesting area.....

Found the required info and ny e-mail has been sent. Didn't venture any further, but certainly enjoyed what I did. Thanks for bringing me here.

Found this on our way to Louisville, KY. Very interesting place. Hubby enjoyed climbing around on the different layers of rock while I kept to the first level. Thank you Team Neos for bringing us here. Will email answers shortly.

Had a nice long trip planned out to grab a bunch in southern IN, was a long day, a lot of driving and walking both. TFTC

foggy this morning in Indiana and wish we had more time to explore

It was very hot when we were here, but we had a lot of fun. Thanks

Found this today with the_drake_man and Bluecheeseryan. The drake man will be emailing you our answers. Thanks for the fun informative earthcache.

Thanks for the fun place to look

Thanks for the cache. The answers will be on there way.

Nice quick find to mark off this county on our trip from Colorado to Michigan for Christmas. Will send email soon. Tftc!

Decided to return to Paducah from Louisville the long way - through Indiana via I-64 - to grab a few earthcaches and a virtual. Southern Indiana is such a nice and tranquil place. Don't let my wife TrailBlazer know I said this, she's a die hard UK fan. I enjoyed the geology lesson. Paducah sets at the head of an inland sea, so we dont have limestone geology there and I can only see such things in Indiana and middle/eastern Kentucky. TFTEC

Had fun looking for fossils. We found a shell fossil and stretched our legs for a bit. Email sent with answers. Here's photo of shell fossil with GPSr

Stopped for this on the way to the Trail Mix. We ended up climbing to near the top to find a fossil. Fun little climb. Nice view from up there. CA530 will be sending the photo and coords information.

Thanks for the EC!

TFTEC. After a fun hike at today's TrailMix I targeted non-traditional caches on my way home from the Hoosier National Forest and this was the first stop along I-64 and the closest to where I was leaving from (Tipsaw Lake). It took me quite some time to find a fossil that I could take a picture of but I finally did. I'll upload the pic and send the email upon the posting of this log. Thanks for another educational stop along the way home!

LS & I stopped by for a break on our way to the Trailmix 23. We found a fossil after a 10 minute search over 3 levels of fun. This being a local fossil hunting place, I guess Cincinnatians are just lucky cause we have fossils everywhere we look. Cords N38°14.550' W086°28.208' TFTEC

We enjoyed our visit to the fossil zone this morning and had fun learning about fossils. Thanks for putting this one together!

I loved walking across the street as a little kid to find lots of fossils in the sandstone. I was looking for the same type of shale but found different ones. Thanks for setting up this cache. Sameagleman and I climbed the walls to find our fossils.

Doe-ra and I were fossil hunting today. We enjoyed the time climbing the rocks. TFTC

Stopped on the way from St. Louis to Louisville. I'm not good at this fossil thing, but I was thrilled to find what I think is a winner! Thanks for making me stop and look!

During our vacation-trip we did "some" Geocaching.

We had a lot of fun, we saw lots of amazing places and we say thank you to everyone who shared his Geocache with us!!

Geocationing with fergie78. First one I picked up! This place seems like it should be more user friendly. If I had 10 garbage bags we may have spent the whole morning here. Alas, no. If it's that visited, at least a trash can? I digress...tftc, and the new info.
