20' Light gray dolomite li. that does not weather or crack and
thinly as most of the Chazy. Replets with fusoids and fossils
of pentapods.
6' Bluish-gray li, often less dolomitic, weathering then reddish
and more less thinly. Replet with Butthrophi?, and occasional
Actinocrurus clonus?, Vaginoceras piscator, Maclurites acu-
minata, and Horntoma angustina. Away near the middle
without fossils is full of fossils.
8' Light dark colored and smooth weathering dolomitic li,
fracturing into large sharply angular fragments. Once less
laminated like crustal line.
8' A heavy gray that is more dolomitic and weathers into thin
flakes 1 to 2 inks thick which are layers formed of intraforma-
torial edgewise conglomerate. The layers are hard and etiolated
as if the result of a mud flow at the time of deposition;
fossils practically absent.
106' Dark dark colored & bluish li, in heavy beds that weather
into laddly-thinly chips. At 90' above these occur Vagin-
oceras piscator and numerous pentapods.
21' Light bluish gray; dark colored li. that weathers somewhat
with many specimens of one species of low turritled gast.
Jointed into rectangular blocks, in the upper layers are many
specimens of Leperdilia.
2',6"-3',6" Dense light bluish gray li. In a heavy bed that weathers
