While hiking with a friend in New York state, you discover marine fossils in sedimentary strata at high elevations. What is the most logical explanation for their presence?

Marine fossils are only in places where the ocean used to be, millions of years ago. Then the marine life that died, its dead bodies remained there to later on became fossils...
