Kelly, 1977, pp. 285-290 in: San Juan Basin III (northwestern New Mexico), Fassett, J. F.; James, H. L.; [eds.], New Mexico Geological Society 28th Annual Fall Field Conference Guidebook, 319 p. This is one of many related papers that were included in the 1977 NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebook. Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks.

  • Moab/ Westwater - Bike/Raft Sampler 4 Day
    Moab/ Westwater - Bike/Raft Sampler 4 Day The Moab mountain biking–Westwater Canyon combination trip brings together two of the most popular activities in Utah. Mountain biking and Moab are nearly synonymous; the former uranium boom town has become a mecca for bikers wanting to swoop, soar, climb, and roll over sandstone and wild desert trails. Follow this up with two days of floating on the Colorado River, splashing through rapids beneath the sheer black walls of Westwater Canyon, falling asleep to the sound of water on rocks: relaxation well deserved. ​ ​ SAMPLE 4-DAY ITINERARY One of the advantages of a bike/river trip is the flexibility of the daily itinerary. It can vary widely from one trip to the next based on group desires and ability level, Mother Nature, and courtesy for other groups in the area. This typical itinerary illustrates a bike trip in the Moab area and raft trip through Westwater Canyon on the Colorado River. Day 1: Meet group at headquarters in Green River, Utah. A one-hour van ride to Moab marks the start of the trip. We will select ​ a base camp on public land outside of town, location to be determined by where we want to ride, weather, and camp availability. We will begin with a warm-up ride, depending on the group's interests and ability level. The Bar M trail network north of Moab provides a number of excellent short beginner and intermediate single-track loops. Options for after lunch include riding the Klondike Bluffs or Magnificent 7 trail networks. Dinner and solar showers await back at base camp.

  • Cogjm.Rv Flow Ad 05-80.Pdf (166.8Kb)
    River Flow Advisory Water and Power Resources Service Upper Colorado Region Salt Lake City, Utah Vol. ll, tfo 2 Ma 1980 The May 1 snow measurements and forecasts indicate.that inflows into Lake Powell are 141 % of normal. This will mean, among other things, that Lake Powell will probably fill for the first time. It will also assure ample water for river boating in the canyons of the Colorado and its principal tributaries. Here are the forecasts for flows below dams operated by the Water and Power Resources Service: COLORADO RIVER ABOVE LAKE POWELL Colorado River at Westwater Canyon - The flow is now 22,000 cfs and is expected to reach about 46,000 cfs around the first of June. Cataract Canyon (including the Green River) - The flow is now 35,000 cfs and is expected to peak at approximately 85,000 cfs around the first of June. LAKE POWELL Lake Powell, now at elevation 3,680 feet, is expected to fill to elevation 3,700 feet by next July. The lake is rising at l/2 foot per day. COLORADO RIVER THROUGH GRAND CANYON Because Lake Powell will probably fill, more water than usual will be released this spring. Also, it is certain that tributary inflow below Glen Canyon Dam wil 1 be higher than normal. The minimum release (between midnight and 7 a.m.) wil 1 be 3,000 cfs.· UPPER GREEN RIVER Fontenelle Reservoir - The reservoir is at elevation 6,489 feet. The present release of 1700 cfs will be increased as the inflow increases. The inflow is expected to be about normal.
