GeoWerkstatt Gams — Fossil & Stone Context / Workshop Rockhounding Status & Field Guide
GeoWerkstatt Gams is a useful geology/fossil context record: current regional tourism information says fossils and stones occur around Gams and can be processed in the workshop. The source does not establish unrestricted collecting rights, so the map correctly keeps it in Research status.
