Details: On top of the roadcut (walk around to the top) you will find marine fossils (e.g. crinoids, shells, sponges, sharks teeth, and such) from the exit sign towards the Greenland exit. They are not pristine, but are good specimens.
Directions: Going south from Fayetteville on I-540 it will be on your right immediately after the "Greenland 1-mile" sign and the roadcut follows along the side until the exit.
