Why this spot
Rockhounding locality: red Djadochta Formation sandstone where Roy Chapman Andrews' 1923 expedition made the world's first recognized dinosaur-egg discovery
The 1923 egg discovery, Velociraptor and mammal finds are documented (Flaming Cliffs, Andrews accounts); material still weathers out, which is exactly why removal is illegal
