    Over the past month I’ve been casually searching for footprint fossils from the Bull Run Formation, specifically in Manassas sandstone exposures. Today I went through stones with evidence of water ripples, raindrops, and what I can only assume is worm tunnels. After going through several I brushed off a slab that had multiple impressions of what appear to be footprint scratches along with water ripples. As this is the first time I’ve tried looking for dinosaur footprints I’m a complete beginner so I have no idea what I’ve found.

    Is there any way one of you could take a quick look at these and let me know if the stone has fossilized footprints/foot-scratches?
