Details: You can find crinoids and brachiopods, and trace fossils here. This information came from this website: http://www.nashvillefossils.com/fieldtrips/ridgetop/ridgetop.html
Directions:
From the website: "Directions:
Get on I-65 heading North (to Louisville)
Get off at exit 104 ( rt 31w, Ridgetop), and turn left (to Springfield)
Go west a few miles to the junction with rt.41. Turn right.
Drive five miles on rt 41. You will climb a long hill with a high road cut on the left. This is our site.
When you get to the top of the hill, turn around, and head down slowly stopping at several places."
I wasn't sure where the location was on Google Earth so I didn't make a placemark.
