Page Museum "La Brea Tar Pits"

Pit 91
You don't have to travel to distant lands to see fossil "diggers" in action.
Take an expedition to the Miracle Mile of Los Angeles,
the only city in the world that has a fossil treasure trove beneath gallons of "oozing" pitch blackness.

For more information, visit La Brea Tar Pits

Very nice and interesting shot, this must be a very interesting but also dirty job:)

Whoa - I had no idea they did this. I knew about the tar pits, of course - but never knew about the fossil digging. Cool shot - dirty work, though!
