Tuesday August 23-1932 Wea. MON. JUNE 28, 1909 Ther. Back again to the same road as of yesterday, The Grinnelli comes in great exposures marked on therm. There can acem be strike for about 600' but no no exposures. Then appear the anemic Mallett in little cliffs that go E. To the N-S. or what I am calling the Ruff Horn road. Then E is low land in wh. it flows Ruff Horn and which lies the Parka slate east to the Ruff Horn dpl. cpl. The distance by sight appears to be around 600' (Heimke) Then between the Ruff Horn cpl and the dol. thought it is m. R.ice^ ^ it is 825' acem, and at 100 dip S.E. the thickness can be estimated. on the S in Mott Basin I then traced the Mott Rim cpl. from its type locality north to the E-W road on which I came this morning. This led to a surprise that the dol. gone is not the top of the St. Albam. but clearly written in it. From the cpl. E to the Oneli Rim it is 510' acem to the top of the St. Albams. The Heights here dip 85° to S.E. This then makes the St. Albams 825-510 = 1335' dip at an average dips 10° or more (bet 9° and 15°). Thralls pils of rock when he collected St. Albans fossils is as the very top of this formation. After a few Agurati and Conquella here to-day. The Oneli Rim cpl about the frail slates comes and goes. Here it is all over 8' thick and farther N. there is
