Salt River Section, Arizona
Collection 0 to 3 are in first road above Molasses-Redwall road cut. Collect 4 is
in second road 10' above Collection 3, but the structure is a bit odd, is several
NW plunging folds, slightly faulted? so that Collection 4 may possibly be same as
Collection 0 (doubtful) because of lithologic dissimilarities however?
Collection 5 - Coral-Brach-Crinoid-Bry bioherm Prismopora and Fenestelloids.
