[[left margin]] 737K [[/margin]] M19671 - Ammonite bed east of M1987

The knobs forming the front of the hills here have vertical bedding. About 75' of cgl. ls, ls pebbles & silicious pebbles up to 3 or more inches form the front 3rd of the hill. The middle 3rd is brown silicious rock. In the last 3rd a limestone bed of 8 or 10' and vertical forms the backside of the hill. This ls is followed by more silicious beds but these are not vertical. They dip at a strong angle into the Del Nortes. The front 3rd is all dolomitized

732j - Appears on back slope of hill rimming valley. The Road Canyon appears as two limestones. The 732j is the very top of the second or uppermost ls. Just below the beds with collimatus appear cobbly black limestone, weathering gray. This ls. contains the same ammonites we have collected on the top of the Road Canyon in the exposures seen yesterday at the house and the locality to which we took Furnish & Glenster
