Panoramic view up the canyon of Middle Fork of Popo Agie River at its junction with Mill Creek; showing conspicuous walls and dip slopes of Pennsylvanian sandstone (Tensleep of this region) and relatively smooth slopes formed on the overlying Phosphoria beds. Photos lwt2289a, lwt2289b and lwt2289c form this panorama. Fremont County, Wyoming. 1922. Plate 5-B in U.S. Geological Survey. Professional paper 149. 1927.

Ridges north of Chugwater Creek, near Iron Mountain, formed by sandstones correlated with the Dakota group at Bellvue. The main ridge shows the platy middle sandstone, with the conglomeratic lower sandstone in the slope to the left. The upper sandstone forms the smaller ridge to the right and middle shale crops out between the ridges. Laramie County, Wyoming. 1922. Plate 30-B in U.S. Geological Survey. Professional paper 149. 1927. Plate 4-A in U.S. Geological Survey. Bulletin 751. 1925.

Red Beds about 10 miles southeast of Thermopolis, the sagebrush slope in the foreground is formed in the soft gypsiferous shale beneath the Chugwater red beds; halfway up the bluff at the left is a massive red sandstone with shaly beds above and below; still higher is the Alcova limestone, to thin to appear prominent at this distance, and the upper gypsiferous beds. Near the center (photo lwt2292b) in the distance are the Sundance and Morrison formations, capped by Cloverly sandstone, which appears at the skyline. Hot Springs County, Wyoming. 1922. Plate 20-B in U.S. Geological Survey. Professional paper 149. 1927.

Form a panorama of Big Horn Hot Spring, Thermopolis; looking east across Big Horn River and the terraces of travertine to the "Red Beds' which are inclined southward on the flank of a sharp anticline whose apex lies to the left. From this anticline 18,600,000 gallons of sulphur water issues every 24 hours, having a temperature of 135 degrees F, and carrying calcium carbonate and other mineral matter in solution. In the distance in order from left to right, are the older Chugwater red beds, the Alcova marine limestone, gypsum and shale of the upper part of the Chugwater, the marine Sundance formation, (the basal sandstone is absent here), the Morrison formation and the sandstone correlated with the lower sandstone...
