Permian age Coconino sandstone - 2:57 AM, Jun. 14, 2008

This stone is from northern Arizona, the Permian age coconino sandstone. The little tetrapod trackway near my finger is from an amphibian or a mammal-like reptile that lived 270 million years ago. Researchers have never found the animal, so the tracks are a bit of a mystery. I thought it fitting that the rock is to be used as a sunning spot for lizards, and possibly a gecko.
