well, it took me a day to get everything ready, and i came up, and i got up there with all these materials, and he took me over to this big cliff, and he said, "take a look." and i looked at it, and i looked at him. i said, "is that t-rex?" he said, "yes, and i think it's all here." >> and we haven't started digging or haven't moved anything around yet. we've just been looking at it and taking some pictures and trying to figure out how to proceed. there's a real mass of bones here. some are caught up in concretion, but most appear to be really excellently preserved. and i believe that the tail's going that way and the skull is going this way, but we're just going to have to dig it up and see. collecting fossils is something that's very timely. fossils are discovered because they're weathering out, because the forces of nature, rain, winds, freezing, thawing, even snowfall, have an effect on that fossil. every day that it's outside is a day that it's going to destruction. we started by picking up all these thousands of fragments of bones and bagging them, labeling them.
