  2. From the Devil Canyon overlook (Devil Canyon is the dry side canyon that joins the river in the middle of the pan) - Bighorn Canyon National Recreational Area (Montana).

  3. Along Highway 12 - it was hard not to stop here with the sun hitting the outcrop at a nice angle. I may be wrong about this, but I think these outcrops are part of the Cretaceous Straight Cliffs formation (sandstones and shales), which has occasional organic rich layers - including coal.

  4. Willimantic Dome outcrop along Route 6 in Coventry, CT. (Series of Gneisses and Schists, containing lots of nice looking garnets.)

  6. Another view from the north rim of the Grand Canyon - this time from the patio at the Grand Canyon Lodge. The Inner Gorge is just visible behind the closer ridges - the oldest rocks in the Canyon are exposed in the gorge by the Colorado River.

  7. View from Point Royal, looking to the southeast (this is a point at the end of a short drive - west of where Grand Canyon Lodge and Bright Angel Point are located).

  8. Looking west from the main road in Bighorn Canyon National Recreational Area (the canyon is the other direction), there are beautiful sets of tilted sedimentary layers - reds, tans, greys, etc. This view is located inside the Pryor Mountain Wild Horse Refuge as well (part of the refuge is located inside the recreati...

  10. One of series of Jurassic aged lake bed sediments outcropping along Route 9 in central Connecticut. The thin layers in the middle of this outcrop represent the lake bottom (that's a nice organic-rich shale in the middle), while the more massive red sandstones on either side were deposited on land. More from this...
