Geocache Description:

Bison Tube micro in one of many holes in a set of limestone rocks at the entry to Arredondo Farms.

While hunting for this cache, be sure to look for the numerous shell mold fossils present in these rocks.
Fossils can be found everywhere in Florida. They are found in limerock, beach sand, riverbeds and phosphate mines. Florida is known for its rich fossil record. The state's 50 million-year fossil record shows the variety of creatures that roamed the land and the sea because Florida during much of this time was underwater. Throughout this period, glacial activity caused the oceans to rise and fall many times, as recently as 10,000 years ago. At times, the state was twice its current width. At other times, it was less than 100 miles long and 10 miles wide.
