Description

This black and white photograph features another view of the ripple marks found in the outcrop. Part of the slab, the bottom half and the left side, are darker than the rest. This could be condensation as the rock appears to be wet. There are four tools found at the bottom right of the photograph. These include a brush and three other instruments that aided in unearthing these marks. A measuring tape can also be found at the bottom of this photograph; this tape indicates that the ripple marks they uncovered are about 6 feet long and 4 feet wide. Handwriting is below the photograph.
