@braydon-arnett lovely find! This is called Ophiomorpha, a petrified burrow from a ghost shrimp covered in fossilized fecal pellets from the crustacean. Really neat! Because its an ichnofossil I delt with the classification for you this time. There are a few steps you’ll need to take to make this a research grade post:
1) Take a picture of the fossil with a scale (ruler or coin will do) OR take measurements and put them in the dimension field.
2) Use the link below to fill out the lithostratigraphy. It should give you a group and a formation.
3) Use the link below to fill out Geochronology, whatever it gives you can be found on the geochronology wizard so it fills out the rest for you!
