Edgemont area with Garland Goff (cont. from p 56, Ntbk 4, I-K 2) has traced channel edge; it has a Northwest trend. Sandstone is fine to medium grained. Base Fall River seen at E, F and G. similar to that in Devils tower area, Garland puts local channel sand directly under what I call base, in Fall River. This in same position as Henry Bells "Gould" ss. - will call it "Fuson sandst." here, it would be top Lokote, one ore-bearing in Cevile mine probably, in D.T. area. Fall River - Fuson-Lokote contact. Seen at E (picture) where it resembles the "red, white, r blue" contact of D.T. area. At some of road cuts we crossed gouztion also evident, this was in Robinson Flats area. The Fe specks were present. At E the contact was within 2 or 3 feet of basal FR ss and a thin ss bed was on it locally. Where the "Fuson sandstone" was present at F and H we discussed its position relative to the Fall River. At F there is no weathered zone and Fall River sits directly on the "Fuson SS".
