out about 75 feet above here where the first black shale zone appears. The Medina-Hudson contact does not show here. In fact the Penn. side is far the better exposed due also to the river road cuttings. Opposite the uppermost and largest island at Delaware Water Gap the top of the Medina is again once exposed. This is on the New Jersey side at the steep ferry landing. As the cliff turns Bridget Ridge it is quite true that nothing new appears in the Cherry Valley flats until we come to the Lapidated beds seen this morning. Then two the basal sandstone dolina is exposed in the middle of the village of Delaware Water Gap.
