This is a scientifically important site. I'd probably hold back the location if I knew it which I don't. The location in the location field may be in the general area where the fossils were found.

Unfortunately, the location of Mormon Creek Trail seems to be lost to posterity.

Both those roads exist, but they no longer intersect (assuming that they ever did). Location used is my best guess as to where the camp might have been.
