We left from Pacific Cycle at 10:00 on Sunday Sept 25th. Because of the rain and not wanting to bike on wet crushed gravel, we did a field change and biked the Cap City Trail.

The largest fossil excavation project just wrapped up (June 2011) at the now infamous Ziegler Reservoir near Snowmass Village. The excavation quickly unearthed a grand total of 4,826 bones over a seven week period, becoming the most significant fossil site in Colorado history and freezing a geographic chunk of the Ice Age in time.

The village had mastodon fever – mastodons were everywhere. We arrived in the village just about 7 weeks after the initial discovery in October 2010.
The final dig ended June 2011. All findings went to the Denver Museum of Nature & Science.
The National Geographic Society plans to feature the Snowmass Ice Age-finds on PBS as part of a NOVA special airing on PBS next year.
