M18672 - Fusulines just over lip of hill all Road Canyon. Down back slope of hill there must be about 20' of rocks before the ammonite bed. The latter as a guess is 5 - 8' thick.

A = Ammonite bed 8' +-
B = Heavy bedded ls mixed with some siliceous rock bedding irregular some siliceous material. Bed B has about 15; beyond the lip of the hill. Fusulines (M18672) taken about 5' starting above edge of hill & 10 - 15' below Ammonites bed.
C - platy siliceous, yellow shaley rock about 12', Top five feet covered. Also has considerable heavy bedded ls lenses.
D - 3' heavy band
E - Upper part mainly massive bedded ls blocky, granular separated by yellow platy shale. Lower part massive granular limestone from which came M18673 = 737e
