From Weber Peak southward they overlie conformably the Lower Coal-measures, although not extending southward out into the open valley quite as far as the limestone, being buried beneath either basaltic flows or the alluvial deposits of Pinto Creek. Along the line of contact the Weber conglomerates form a well defined series of ridges parallel with the Alpha and Fusilina ridges, the two formations standing out sharply contrasted by their surface forms, atmospheric agencies acting quite different...ly on the fine crystalline limestones and the coarse conglomerates. In like manner erosion acting upon the more easily disintegrated conglom- erates has worn out a number of narrow drainage channels along the con- tact which serve still more sharply to define tin- boundaries.
