Measured up the southwestern face of Leonard Mountain
beginning from a gully at the foot of the escarpment due south
of BM 5860 up to the top of the mountain. Units 1 through 4
are tightly folded and faulted and the thicknesses given are
only estimates. Units 6 and 7 are in a sequence which dips
24° to the southwest and are truncated and unconformably over-
lain by unit 8. Unit 18, the dolostone, is not a consistent
horizon when traced laterally.
