Top--The roadcut exposes a dominantly fluviatile (river or stream-deposited) sandstone facies of the lower Cretaceous Newark Canyon Formation in eastern Eureka County, a number of miles from the western border of White Pine County, Nevada; a Google Maps street car perspective that I edited and processed through photoshop.

Bottom--A paleontologist explores fossiliferous outcrops of the lower Cretaceous Newark Canyon Formation in Eureka County, Nevada, a number of miles from the western border of White Pine County, Nevada. The freshwater Newark Canyon Formation yields an excellent fossil record of early Cretaceous times: an extinct ray-finned fish; gar fish; a freshwater shark; the turtle genus Glyptops; crocodilians, a small herbivorous dinosaur in the family Euornithopoda; a large plant-eating dinosaur in the family Iguanodontidae; an armored dinosaur from the family Ankylosauridae; skeletal elements from sauropod and theropod dinosaurs; eggshell fragments from the oogenus Elongatoolithus (oviraptors); a dromaeosaur dinosaur; extinct multituberculate mammals; gastropods; peleycypods; ostracods; petrified woods; leaves; charophytes (freshwater green algae); and pollens.
