Colorado National Monument, Colorado. Lizard Canyon Monocline. View is southeastward across the mouth of Lizard Canyon from the southeastern-most loop of Rim Rock Drive just before it ascends Fruita Canyon. Note gentle lower bend on the lower left and sharper upper one on the upper right. The lower bend changes to Kodels Canyon Fault in Fruita Canyon behind the camera station. Grand Mesa forms the left skyline. Figure 30, U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1508.

Colorado National Monument, Colorado. Step-like weathering of Moab Member of Entrada Sandstone in the west arm of Ute Canyon. Jes, Slick Rock Member of Entrada; Jem, Moab Member; Js, Summerville Formation. Circa 1950. Figure 16, U.S. Geological Survey Professional paper 451.
thumbnail
Colorado National Monument, Colorado. Entrada Sandstone, just above a normally dry waterfall in the west arm of Ute Canyon. Note the smooth unjointed cliff of Slick Rock Member protected on the left by an overhanging basal bed of Moab Member, which forms about lower half of the slope in the distance. Upper part of the distant slope is the Summerville Formation overlain by Salt Wash Member of the Morrison Formation. Slick Rock on the left rests upon eroded cross- bedded sandstone in the Kayenta Formation in which the canyon is cut. October 3, 1969. Figure 16, U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1508.

Colorado National Monument, Colorado. Mottled salmon-and-white Slick Rock Member, overlain by white level-bedded Moab Member on the west side of Rim Rock Drive about four-tenths of a mile north of the head of main Ute Canyon. Circa 1950. Figure 18, U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1508.

Slide caption: OF 83-443, Slide #2 Caption information taken from OFR 83-443, Slides showing aeromagnetic and gravity data for regional mineral exploration in Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona: Residual Bouguer gravity map of the Pueblo 1° x 2° quadrangle, Colorado.

Colorado National Monument, Colorado. Reverse part of Redlands Fault, looking N. 65 degrees W. from a point on South Broadway along the boundary fence. Most of the Chinle Formation has been squeezed out, but the lower part of Wingate Sandstone may be seen dipping about 45 degrees southwestward beneath dark Proterozoic rocks. The next pink band on the right is Entrada Sandstone. The jumbled mass of white sandstone slabs on the right is part of the Salt Wash Member of the Morrison Formation and known locally as "White Rock". 1976. Figure 40, U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1508.

Colorado National Monument, Colorado. The Coke Ovens, looking north from Rim Rock Drive near Artists Point across the arm of Monument Canyon. Chinle Formation, Wingate Sandstone, Kayenta Formation, Entrada Sandstone, Morrison Formation, and Summerville Formation. The general absence of the protective cap of Kayenta Formation from monoliths of Wingate Sandstone in the foreground has allowed erosion into rounded forms resembling beehive coke ovens. The formation of alcoves and arches in the cliff beyond were aided by removal of the underlying Chinle Formation. Joints between the Coke Ovens and in the cliff beyond are in contrast to the general absence of joints in the Entrada Sandstone. Circa 1950. Figure 7, U.S....

Colorado National Monument, Colorado. Gap in the rock record, between Kayenta Formation below the 3.5 x 6.0-inch green notebook and Slick Rock Member of the Entrada Sandstone above. This is an erosional unconformity, clearly indicated by the uneven top of the Kayenta, particularly to the left of the notebook. Note solution pits and openings in the Entrada near the top. November 29, 1976. Figure 15, U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1508.

Album caption: Suspension bridge in the Royal Gorge of the Arkansas River, Colorado, between Salida and Pueblo. The gorge is 1500 feet deep at its deepest point. This photo was taken on November 3 at 7 a.m. No index card.

Colorado National Monument, Colorado. Kodels Canyon Fault looking northwestward across the canyon of the same name. The base of Wingate cliff on the left is just about opposite the top of the Wingate on the right. Here, nature was kind to the geologist, for the vertical displacement (rise of the left side with respect to the right) is virtually the thickness of the Wingate Sandstone, about 350 feet. The Wingate on the right is lighter colored than that on the left, seemingly because rock falls removed desert varnish-coated rocks and exposed the true color of the sandstone. Figure 32, U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1508.

Colorado National Monument, Colorado. West from the divide on Broadway 2 miles east of the west entrance. Monoclinal hill on the right is Brushy Basin Member of the Morrison Formation capped by basal beds of the Burro Canyon Formation. The rocks at left middle are blocks of sandstone in the Salt Wash Member of the Morrison. 1976. Figure 34, U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1508.
