How does one recognize the pleistocene layer in a creek bed? I have found washed out fossils and looking for the bed.

Hello new member.  Most of North Texas Pleistocene fossil bones were found right above the Cretaceous gravel layer.  These layer tends to preserve bones better then any other layer.     I also found several bison bones at this layer and they were well preserved.    Anything above this layer could be recent though.
