SNOWMASS VILLAGE — Late Wednesday afternoon and into Thursday, workers with Gould Construction made some additional startling discoveries of bones that are even larger than the ones they unearthed two weeks ago from Ziegler Reservoir.

“In the last two days, we found four animals,” said Mark Gould, owner of Gould Construction. “This is huge!”

Huge is also the description that Snowmass Water and San Manager Kit Hamby used to describe the new find. “They are very, very large bones from a heavy animal,” he said.
