About 1km E of Parros is a clay rock with Plat, fenedera and Prasspera. This rock drives a quarry up stream east- ward; the rock is not very prominent now. Horizon unknown, In all I learn this could be the rock at the very top of the so called Parros unit as exposed in the Hills hand section.

Mr Timetta exposes 38.5 ft Black shale, cut out. 50 ft Oolral not exposed, at my face an hydropam fragm which may belong to Armheim Or diagnostic fossils 13 ft one colored. Plat, fenedera, Moberling ludden, 4 ft massive arg. rock, 18 ft shale bed, 22 ft Oolral. Oiler, about 5 ft Oolral, creek level. Denb's claim hi hill side but not exposed. Judging from exposures along creek only shale bed exposed here. Further down stream, halfway between Parros & Ellisburg. The outc bying rock with Prasspera in view den NW of school at Ellisburg.
