There is another ls, similar to this one,
about 40' higher; This could be slung
from that.
Coll. 8/9/57/4- From near the middle of
the wrecamp in the stream gully which
forms the 1st windgap SWy the peak.
Itas from the lighter interval, equivalent to the
2nd bichurmed ls.
This entire wrecamp here seems to
alternations of brown-orange sandstone &
grey shales.
There is just some question where the
wrecamp - and Gaptank should be split.
The Gaptank forms an anticline beneath the
Ridge at this point; the beds I've called
wrecamp may be the evenly dipping sides
of this Gaptank anticline. It seems
evident from the general relationships
that the wrecamp thus appreciably lies
out & faced the crest of this structure
and also that the source of the
wrecamp deposits here are the sandstones
of the Gaptank, not Dev shales!

There is no chert couple and indeed scarcely
any couple at all. The friable Gaptank 55
didn't remain pebbles very long.
Coll. 8/9/57/5- in the swdeterminant windgap-
about 25' downon SE side. ls, brown gray, very
conglomeratic, 1/2" to 1" chert + ls pebbles.
This seems to be within the wrecamp
interval. I would guess judging from the
beds above & below, this is near bed 15
Section 23.
2)
Section 28- SW wind gap; Degout NH.
Covered below - approximately 20' (?)
above angular unconformity with Gaptank.
1) ls, brownish gray weathering, very conglomeratic
see note about Coll. 8/9/57/5-
12'
2) Sandstone and shales; light brown,
friable, 1/4" to 1/2" bedding; 25'
3) Calcarenite, and grayish brown; coarse
sand sizes; a few foot-sized features
& other organic frags. 4' ; 6" beds
