(150 - 200 yds distance)

Next northern knoll overlying the foot of
cliff is a banded rock but a glance at
quartzite with mica mica in it 679
Climbed 30-40 yds here + then collected
Sp. 680 - Micaceous quartzite(-) examining
small fawned dikes. 575' A.T.
If these be really quartzite the Hu-
norion is to be carried up to
the top of this cliff east of igloo at
Canyon Lake - underlies big spurs,
Loose blocks of unrecognizable quartzite
die on top of the eastern knoll (form-
ing west side of gulch) at brow of
cliff 700' A.T. I would swing quite
westward along brow + turn boundary
northward near head of gulch directly
above Pridtla's igloo, or around again
the higher point
nice cairn was built
which seems to be genuine.
3:30 p.m. Base of cairn 760' A.T. Cairn
measures 7'3" high on east side
28 June. Climbed shallow gulch and face of
cliff 200-300 yds east of Pridtla's igloo
and found Hunorion quartzite and schist
forming upper 200 feet of the bluff.
Is there a fault between this knoll and the
cairn cliff, traversing and causing the
large gulch directly above the igloo?
