Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Annual Report of the State Geologist: For the Year 1899
Professor Salisbury's report on the work is here appended. It is a clear and concise summary and statement of plans for the publication of his work in the State.
In connection with the work on the surface formations under the direction of Professor Salisbury, four typical areas were sur veved in detail by Mr. Kummel, and maps, on a large scale, pre pared by the topographical division of the Survey, were used for the delineation of the several surface formations and their characteristic topography. One of these areas is near Hacketts town, and is a section of the terminal moraine of the last glacial epoch. The map represents the older glacial drift and the terminal moraine, and shows their relative positions and their relation to the older formations, and the soils resulting from the disintegration of these older rocks.
