5.55.3.
In northern 5.55.3 just
northwest of the curve of the
inlet a thick (25 ft.) trap dike
comes down to the shore. There
is followed to the east by
about 10 feet of rhyolitic tuffs
and about 40 ft. farther east in
a conspicuous ledge [illegible]
tuffs (massive). In the interval
between the and x lassic tuffs
crops out some couple
of feet of gray shale holding
Dalmanella (Schroederi Conc) Abund.
Chonetes bastini occasional
Stenoscisma sp. "
Orbiculoida sp. "
Crinoid stems "
The strike is N. 10° W. dip 40° E.
These splintery gray shales reappear
at the south at the angle of the
inlet forming a tiny waterfall
and at this point the trap
dike appears to the east of
the shales.
