well exposed. Much carbonate of lime apparently filling fissures & peculiarly formed. strewn over the weathered banks. The same substance identically developed was noticed where some sandstones occurred close in to mountains & about 8. m. N of Kootanie Pass entrance.

The sandstones in this locality are very abruptly folded.

Drawing

A mile or two farther N on the river similar beds are again seen. Had not time to examine them closely but did not see any coal, or fossiliferous bands. Sandstones & greenish grey clays on E. Side not far from horizontal beds on W. side much disturbed. At or near here begins disturbance due to mountains.
