"[illegible]" is a rapidly incised [illegible] ridge. The plain above is decidedly undulating in thin Comanche bedded material. The landscape is that of a semi-arid country, open sage brush and cacti. No trees anywhere, and every-where mother earth sticks out, but work in everywhere due to cloud bursts. The ridges are nearly naked of vegetation as the draws are somewhat filled with loose material. West of the Pecos River the Comanche is the same as before, and the strata appear to lie nearly horizontal. This is true in the canyon, but in the Saliney cutting one sees considerable undulation, even sharp but slip folding and some faulting. Long before one gets to Vanderorn in west Texas one are rising up a stream valley and the escarpments go higher. At Vanderorn we are 2772 feet above tide and the hills rise about 350 feet higher. The strata are all horizontal and I should say Cutaceno = Comanchean. We are constantly rising in altitude.
