Find the Building: Solve the Clues & Show the Map!

Okay, @1oldman2, you are up.

Approximately 60 Kilometers northeast of Moscow, a world famous fossil find, so unique the autumn colors of the leaves are still seen before rapid oxidation turns them black. (Also a good place to race your snowmobiles) Magnolia, Avocado, Sycamore and the like from the Miocene era, as well as an extinct trophy trout. Name the location of this bed/bowl.

I see what you did there!

Lol... yeah, me too...[COLOR=#black]..[/COLOR]

I'd a hope that someone would have located it by now.
It's not a bird, but still a specific lark I am thinking about.

I'm back and have spent some time on this one with no luck so far.

 

[1oldman2]

http://www.theslowlane.com/other/marks.html A clue.

 

[Jonathan Scott]

A clue.

I hid a couple more in my previous post, assuming I got it right.

 

[wolram]

Even with all the clues i can not find this on google Earth or google maps

Search the name of the pizza joint with the name Moscow, or click the link in my last post. remember this only designates the general area not the exact location your looking for, the fossil bed is world famous as some claim there is actually 15 million year old DNA that can be extracted, others claim the DNA is from contamination. At any rate the preservation is truly unique.
I should add the pizza is pretty dang good also.

 

[Jonathan Scott]

Just head out from Moscow through Troy and keep going for about 48 miles.

You crafty 1oldman2 i was looking in Russia.

Good show, I live only a few hours drive from the area, it really is very unique. (I suspect in the case of the pizza joint Karl Marks was likely a capitalist)

Yes, that was an amusing anti-clue!

Just for the record, those were my hidden clues.
I hope to have more time soon (last orchestra rehearsal before the summer break tonight) so I might get back to answering properly in future.

 

[1oldman2]

Yes, that was an amusing anti-clue!

A little disinformation/deception can go a long way. did you notice Moscow is a college town?

Just for the record, those were my hidden clues.

I enjoyed those, very good! Hope your rehearsal goes well.

Here is your next mission, find this bull

The Bull's head is lowered, its nostrils flare, and its wickedly long, sharp horns are ready to gore; it's an angry, dangerous beast. The muscular body twists to one side, and the tail is curved like a lash: the Bull is also energetic and in motion

 

[1oldman2]

I would have to start by guessing the Merrill-Lynch bull on wall street.

That was to easy, but not a bad ruse to put you back in the chair

I can't believe I fell for that one again, be back soon.

You say this one should be easy, i think i need another clue

I think you need a word to mean "Black" in there as well. Haven't we had that one before?

Edit: No, I see I was thinking of "Forum Game - Where's that Landmark? Part 2"

That was a minor diversion, not the real riddle, see #649

Shhh!, It's a trap for Wolram, payback for post #647

 

[wolram]

If it is a trap i have fallen into it i can not make head nor tail of this one

 

[wolram]

Is this the answer to your riddle:

[1oldman2]

That will do... Your the trapper now.
