Day -4

Today we started by remapping the bones we mapped yesterday. We took pictures and then tried to continue to extract them. We worked most of the morning at the same site (WBS-West Beside Sauropod), Then moved to CB. At CB they have found skull material of an Allosaur. This is the ultimate in fossil hunting. Skulls are made of lots of little bones put together, so to find some that are whole are amazing. We certainly don't have a whole skull (yet) but we will continue to look.
In the afternoon, I had more or less pedestalled the bone I had been working on for 3 days, and the only thing left to do was to glue all the top together. As I worked under the bone, it would crumble. The only solution to allowing us to give the bone a cast is to glue it all together. Tomorrow it should come out. We were able to stop work early to explore the opposite hillside in search of petrified wood. I found a few peices and then went back to CB to pick up our commorades. There in the scree, I found a bone to take home.
