Crews out at the Snap Creek Camp are busy excavating two Triceratops skulls.  One, named Joe's Trike, discovered by movie director Joe Johnston appears to be a young adult skull, and the other, named Lauren's Trike is apparently that of a large adult, but the skull is in several chunks.  Lauren is a volunteer from UC Berkeley.  With temperatures in the 100s the crews are working under shade tarps, and swimming in ponds after work.  MOR's Bob Harmon is the Field Crew Chief, and other members of the crew include Brian Basiak (MSU grad student), Becky Schaff and Lee Hall (MSU students), Kari Baker, Liz Johnson, Sara Keenan, Judith Sassoon, and Malorie Snider.  Nels Peterson is the Tech for the crew.
