"Aug 22 1964
Dr 13E The Green Tree Falls Dyke"
1 About 100 yards above the
lowest cascade and at Bar. 645'.
This dyke crosses the upper strata
nearly S and is in a N W to S & E
direction.
There as a deep and long
narrow hole of water on the grove when
dyke crosses and at the surface of
the water on the north side of the
dyke go about 10 thick mints or Sand,
it is deeper than 5 ft. The dyke plunges from
so it gets higher and is about 4' above
the water & disappears entirely.
The material of the dyke (?) the
characteristic of this by a clean light
grey or nearly pure white rock with an
abundance of fine mica specks and look
of shale stink with it.

Water level
Above is a sketch of dyke on
S side I gave as it appears from
private note about 1/2 along the dam,
which is broken up into blocks at what
from 4' to 2' apart.
Aug 23 - 1964
Geno 3d Just below the cap right (th)
12 left of the falls at Saldiville,
is a 5" light gray shale containing
bands of pink & orange from these
I collected few specimens:
Pyrochlophite, ? pyroxene, ? Deij
Somophote, ? (?) Bar. 470's.
(skips several lines)
Geno 3d: At Bar 50' in the bed
stream and about 20 yds above
record cascades Caprol with it above
Salma Creek via dyke. Crossing the stream
again with the N, S & E & SE.
This dyke is made up of two great
dykes with minute distance apart. The
greater dyke are neither of them continuous,
they are 5' apx., the one on the west
dyke continues or might, say, of a stream a fraction
of an mile thick to perhaps and 720 ft is
depth and maybe on the middle.
The dyke 12' from north end this
6" thick from this on for 15 feet it
has been eroded away leaving a crack
in the rock which is filled with gravel
and sand. All of the dyke is covered.
" & The east dyke starts about 12' south of
north I next dyke with its thickness
on razor edge and gets thicker northward
until where it becomes rounded 15' north
to 4 1/2" thick.
To come a sketch drawing of water
and dykes.
These dykes occur in the valley side
and one of them (6) extends into the rocky
sh immediately above."
