From the Utah geology website, location #26, it says: "Pelecypods

The pelecypod Inoceramus occurs in outcrops of Carmel Formation along side the road into Buckhorn Wash."
From the Utah geology website, location #26, it says: "Directions to Site: The Buckhorn Wash Road leaves Utah Hwy 10 about 8 miles south of Huntingdon.  Turn east on the road and follow it across Castle Valley (about 15 miles) until it starts to descend Buckhorn Wash to the campground on the San Rafael River.  Search on the left side of the road at the head of the wash."

The GPS marker should be very close.  I tried to copy the location on the Utah website because they only gave a marker not the coordinates.
