July 29-1918. Monday. Bonne Bay to Pauls Inlet.
Left Hee Cre camp at 9 A.M. Brought gps at Bonne Bay and then across to new Redelp Haven. The day is fine with no breeze apparent in the bay.
Are then went across Bonne Bay from the old gps to Norris Point. The outer southern form made up of the Table Head slate and then to the northeast are cut off by trap. This is the only place around here that we can see green scots [illegible] and they melted into the land and finally come out at Deer Brook Bay. From north shore of Bonne Bay this green scot's walk westward the in sand to the outer side of Heele Cre. Between here and the next cre - Heide Cre the dominant form is composed of much marked and [illegible] line a expansive fault due to the proximity of the trap. The dip is 40 northeast at similar quantity from 2 hours [illegible] sandstone. These sandstones [crossed out] and dark slate [underlined] the time [illegible] far by part of the north side of Eggon Bay - fast Drifmore Point broke Haven to North Point light House line 25 kms are much marked, faulted and generally disturbed.
description. The thickness must be considerably greater than 2000 feet. In all this distance we see no red scots. The dips in fairly constant at about 1/3 the i.e. from Heide Cre to [illegible] three Drifmore and Green Point, a distance of many two miles may out are then the cliffs are consider marked or that a calculated time in thrilling cannot be accounts. Two miles / sandstone at 30 = 5700 feet/1 strata (minimum) per 90). as we move from 40 degrees across the strike the thickness is means 4500 feet. [crossed out] the north point of the cre
Are went on here again in Leister Cre and from here onwards there seems to be from a transition from the Cns Head Geyl create into the Bonne Bay sandstone. Here are interbedded thin sandstones, green and flood shale, flood chert grows over two feet thick, limestone conglomerates with the pebbles surrounded and the heels from inches to 4 feet thick, and then leaded light blue limestone intruded with clay shale, one of which are more than 1/2 to 2 miles thick. In the flood shale one gets one clear scale of an Articuloiden.
Almost from Leister Cre northward to Cns Head the freeland to the west of the Long Range is very low and flat. It does not seem to rise to more than
