 a gulch exposes Jurassic strata. To the east and west are Mancos shales. The basal Mancos on the east is composed of hard black shales, with a sandstone above containing numerous plant stems. In it I found several poorly preserved and some unrecognizable. Returned at 5:13 p.m. At about 2 p.m. it rained in camp, and sprinkled where we were, the rain coming from the southwest. Mr. Pratt, a guide, called at camp in late afternoon. Up the river I saw in addition to the usual birds, one, and 16 in one flock. In camp, later, saw six. Felger took a. common from the divide south of to. also common, but have seen few here. After supper Robbins and I went to barber shop and got baths, and I had my hair cut.
