Album caption and index card: Independence Rock. A noted landmark, on the Oregon Trail, for travelers at the time when this route was used.

The Sweetwater flows immediately along the southern end of it, although on the opposite side of the stream another ridge, continuing toward the southwest, was once connected with it. It is a vast and excellent illustration of disintegration, its rounded form resembling an oblong haystack, with layers of rock lapping over the top and sides of the mass. Thin layers have been broken off in part, and huge...

Guatemala Earthquake 1976. Westward along the Motagua fault trace in the lower Motagua Valley. The trace here is marked by the dark line of fissures extending from the creek in the foreground through the giant ceiba (balsam) tree trunk and then along a prominent north facing scarp in the background. The tree was split and toppled by fault movement of at least 72 centimeters sinistral and 37 centimeters down to the north displacement. The vegetation- covered north facing scarp behind the tree, which is 5 meters high, was probably formed by many repeated earlier movements along this same trace. 1976. Slide 18, U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 77-165.
