From here on shale slope up 5+ yards under cover. At least 15' of shale silt, shaly including some good plastic stuff and beds siltstone - then covered sg slope. looks like same structure in past just 2 bays last unit cross, then where exposed, slope comes in at looks like Gremeros. Within next 20 to 30 ft starting you get typical Gremeros-like shale till the way 18
