Mouth of Weber Canyon, Wasatch Range. On the ridge at right is a remnant of a graded plain, and the next ridge is rounded at top. Both appear to be capped by regolith or alluvium. The walls of the intervening gulley are steep, indicating a lowering of base level, and the sculpture of the river gorge walls is youthful. Weber County, Utah. 1901. Published as plate 25-B in U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 153. 1928.

Ogden. From the same standpoint from which photograph 139 in the Jackson, W.H.

Album caption: Devils Gate Bridge. The most attractive feature of the canyon is the roar of the waters of the Weber as they roll over the immense masses of rock in its bed, with the rush and tumult of a mountain torrent. For 4 miles we are enclosed with nearly perpendicular walls of gneiss, 2,000 feet in height, forming the central portion of the Wasatch Mountains; the river rushing through it at right angles. The rocks are beautifully banded everywhere. There are also coarse aggregations of quartz and feldspar all along the sides of this channel; and high up on the steep mountain flanks are vast deposits of boulders and fine sand. Weber County, Utah. 1869. Handwritten notes on album caption: None Index card:...

Weber Canyon, Wasatch Range, near middle; looking upstream (east). From a side canyon at right two remnants of alluvial fans slope steeply, toward the river. The upper corresponds approximately to the Bonneville shore line. The lower corresponds accurately with the Provo shore line. The river was crowded by these deposits against the north wall of its canyon, and when the lake level fell the river channel was locally superimposed on the north wall, in which it cut the short narrow gorge called Devils Gate. The railway grade cuts through the alluvial filling of the pre-Provo Canyon. See 3500. Weber County (?), Utah. no date.

Album caption: First camp of the survey at Ogden, close under the Wasatch Mountains. A marked feature in the mountain, included in our view, is an exposure of 1,000 feet or so of quartzites and limestone, bent up into an arch, the rocky sides of the mountain being so denuded as to show the stratification very distinctly. Elevation of camp plateau 4,488 feet. Weber County, Utah. 1871.

Piedmont scarp crossing alluvial fan of Taylor Creek at mouth of Taylor Canyon, Wasatch Range, near Ogden. Weber County, Utah. no date. Published as plate 9-B in U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 153. 1928.

Fault scarps at base of Wasatch Range, one-half mile south of Ogden Canyon. The steel-truss tower near center of view stands on the block between the scarps. The rounding of the lower scarp indicates that it is older than the upper. Both are newer than the Bonneville shore lines. The mountain face from center to right is of quartzite and is a fault face little modified by weathering. It carries slickensides. Weber County, Utah. no date.
