Resource Program Manager David Bustos lays in a trench to closely brush sediment away from a footprint discovered in one of the sedimentary layers. Two more archeologists work in the background.

Researchers use brushes to carefully reveal the full impression of footprints found in delicate gypsum sand. These tools allow archeologists to directly work on a print without disturbing the surrounding area.
