We found another place to collect and hit the jack pot on pet wood today. The sep nods aren't anything of museum quality but very cool just the same and amazing to find. I did find the smallest septarian nodule ever today, about the size of an egg, which is a first for me.
This is the third place we've found pet wood around the property so I'm really pumped about new hunting areas. Petrified wood is one of my favorites and it's a beautiful transformation. I'm worn out right now but I'll get it all washed up tomorrow and post pics. Some of the pet wood is gorgeous! I should have taken a better pack, more food and some dang coffee. -------------------- Level 2 member -12/25/16

Yesterday we were parking the wood truck for the winter so we scanned around and found sep nod pieces around that area too. It's only about 100 yards from camp so maybe I should search closer to home first haha. I didn't see any visible nodules peeking out but they are definitely eroding out from somewhere.
That layer we've found them in seems to span a square mile from what we've seen but who knows really. We've found them on both sides of Big Hill now. I always thought they would be in a thin strip the way you think of a shoreline but they must have sat in the shallows and built up there until the magic happened. -------------------- Level 2 member -12/25/16
