The south side of Demand is complicated
by:
a) facies changes
b) irregular calcinization beds
c) several faults
I have perhaps drawn the top of the
teaofliths for a little high but we'll
let it stand for the moment - Changes
on the teaofliths formation here as an
eroded anticline (pre-Demand).
Jail Canyon where road & dam map -
1) No Altuda shale on SW end
of H.I. 5789 - This is King's Capitan
upper member -
2) Vidrio = Capitan upper member
apparently + it seems likely
that altudas h+ lower white
are equal to upper part of Vrd.
