Details: This easily accessible site contains calcite crystals, assorted cherts, and lots of materials I'm not advanced enough to ID (see photos). It's a very interesting recent road cut out displaying materials from the Decaturville impact site. Bring a hammer. Wear gloves, there are black widows and ants under some of the rocks.
Directions: Northbound lane along hwy 5. Road cut outs adjacent to road between Lebanon and Camdenton.
