S.E. of it, exposures of tuff SS and sh at not red sh at
at not 200' - 300' A.T. out from blares. Section out from
since Knolls of the track. Basalt outcrop interposes
at about 1450', where from 14450' - 2/180 the Cretaceous
shows again. Large clays & with thin coals and
creamy tuff SS end sh in lower two-thirds. The upper
180' consisting mostly of tuff SS on which not the basalt

50 A.T. Shells preserved and pines photographed. One-half mile
E. of house place the red sh rises from tide to nearly 200' and
is exposed continuing till near the Ravigersuaak narine
