Shenandoah National Park, Virginia. Schistose greenstone along the Appalachian Trail at the base of Little Stony Man Cliffs. Here, a zone of breccia and schistose greenstone marks the boundary between the second and third flows above the base of the Catoctin Formation. The outcrop is approximately 3 feet high. Figure 7, U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1265.

Glacier National Park, Montana. Flank of Mount Cleveland with Chief Mountain in the background, viewed southeast from Stoney Indian Peaks. Middle Belt carbonate sill crops out along the cliff face above the prominent red bed in the Snowslip Formation. August 21, 1983.

Colorado National Monument, Colorado. Updragged Wingate Sandstone along Redlands Fault, looking northwest from a side road 1.5 miles southwest of the intersection of South Camp Road and South Broadway. The white "pimple" atop the cliff near the left skyline is Liberty Cap, an erosional remnant of the Wingate Sandstone, reachable via the Liberty Cap Trail. Here the Chinle Formation was largely squeezed out along the fault. 1976. Figure 38, U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1508.

Album caption and index card: Contorted stratification in sandstones of the Supai Group, Grand Canyon. A, Anticlines and synclines in Wescogame Formation from pene-contemporaneous tight folding of sand body. Traces of structure etched on the surface by weathering, Thunder Riever Trail.

Colorado National Monument, Colorado. Eastern end of Kodels Canyon Fault on the west side of Fruita Canyon. There is no visible displacement except for considerable thinning of Wingate Sandstone. The high cliff of Wingate Sandstone on the left rests on slopes of Chinle Formation. The pinon and juniper-covered slope near the middle is Kayenta Formation resting on thinned Wingate Sandstone. Entrada Sandstone forms the low cliffs on the right. Circa 1950. Figure 32, U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 451.
thumbnail
Glacier National Park, Montana. Altyn Limestone in the lower slopes of Appekunny Mountain, northeast of Many Glacier Hotel. This view is at the type locality of the formation, close to the site of the former settlement of Altyn. The Lewis overthrust is at the base of the cliffs, and the smooth slopes below are underlain by shale of Cretaceous age, which yields few outcrops. July 6,1901. Figure 2, U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 296.
thumbnail
Sequoia National Park, California. Branching avalanche chutes on the west flank of Mount Whitney. Some of the chutes are more than 100 feet deep. Their cutting has been facilitated by the thoroughly jointed structure of the granite. In some places, they are controlled by vertical master joints, but elsewhere they cross these fractures at various angles. Exposure to the afternoon sun has promoted melting of snow in these chutes, and running water has, therefore, played a more important part in modifying their form than it has on the shady north face of Mount Hitchcock. 1935.
thumbnail
Death Valley National Park, California. Basalt mesas and basins with Furnace Creek Formation. Distant Funeral Mountains are tilted blocks of Paleozoic rocks. View is northwest from Greenwater Range. 1957.
thumbnail
Death Valley National Park, California. Racetrack playa, a spit of dolomite rock fragments on mud cracked playa from which surficial mud curls were stripped by wind. Note pebble-size playa scrapers that dug furrows (left of center).
thumbnail
Colorado National Monument, Colorado. Kayenta Formation in a cut along Rim Rock Drive near the elbow of Ute Canyon. Note irregular lens of red siltstone near the base and irregular bedding of sandstone above. Circa 1950. Figure 11, U.S. Geological Survey Professional paper 451.
thumbnail
Mottled salmon and white Slick Rock Member of the Entrada Sandstone overlain by white Moab Member in the southwestern part of Ute Canyon. Colorado National Monument, Colorado.
