Henry is the old Volkswagen bug I drive. Out of Kentucky and down through western Tennessee, across the flooded Mississippi at Memphis, then around Little Rock and into Arkansas' Ouchita Mountains we go; for three days getting stranded here by an unannounced snow. Finally, on a blessed sunny morning, southwestward again, this same day the graceful, moisture-loving forest yielding to northeast Texas' stunted oaks and pines. In the afternoon, on Interstate 30 heading into Dallas, the sun in my eyes and the air smelling of dust, pine resin and Henry's hot oil, I begin thinking that just maybe this escape might succeed.

  • Diagenetic Coloration Facies and Alteration History of the Jurassic Navajo Sandstone, Zion National Park and Vicinity, Southwestern Utah
    DIAGENETIC COLORATION FACIES AND ALTERATION HISTORY OF THE JURASSIC NAVAJO SANDSTONE, ZION NATIONAL PARK AND VICINITY, SOUTHWESTERN UTAH Gregory B. Nielsen, Marjorie A. Chan, and Erich U. Petersen Department of Geology and Geophysics University of Utah 115 S. 1460 E., Rm. 383 FASB Salt Lake City, Utah 84112-0102 [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT Coloration patterns in the Jurassic Navajo Sandstone of Zion National Park and vicinity are examined using a broad variety of geochemical, geospatial, petrographic, and bedform analysis techniques. Six diagenetic coloration facies (including 12 subfacies) are defined and characterized. Results indicate a prolonged and complex diagenetic history with variations in color resulting largely from changes in the concentration and distri- bution of iron oxides. In the northern Kolob Plateau, the Navajo Sandstone has a uniform red pigmentation (red primary facies) that formed during early diagenesis to produce the “primary” sandstone color. In contrast, Navajo Sandstone of main Zion Canyon displays “secondary” alteration features occurring in three distinct vertical coloration facies: brown (lower), pink (middle), and white (upper). The white and pink facies in Zion Canyon are characterized by a combination of prevalent bleaching, areas of remnant “primary” sandstone, and small concretionary iron-enriched lenses. Bleaching is concentrated in the upper Navajo Sandstone where alteration occurred during middle diagenesis (deep burial). Widespread bleaching and alteration in Zion Canyon terminates abruptly in the central park but narrow, well-defined, white bleached bands locally follow high-permeability beds northward for several kilometers into the red-colored Kolob Plateau (red/white facies). The brown facies is characterized by widespread dark iron oxide cement concentrations precipitated beneath a well-defined subhorizontal boundary.

  • Zion National Park Which Stirs the Imagination with a Singular Power ...’ Clarence E Dutton
    ‘There is an elegance to their forms Zion National Park which stirs the imagination with a singular power ...’ Clarence E Dutton Towers of the Virgin 91 Heaven on earth As we set out from Springdale, dawn was bathing the spires of the West Temple, The Sentinel and the Towers of the Virgin in a golden, glowing light. It augured well for a day when we were going to explore the inner sanctuaries of Zion, the 15-mile-long, half-mile-deep canyon cut into the Kayenta and Navajo sandstones of the Colorado Plateau. Formed over millions of years by the uplift of the surrounding plateau, aided by the tremendous erosive power of the North Fork of the Virgin River, Zion Canyon was named by the first Mormon settler, Isaac Behunin in the mid-19th century. It was the nearest thing to heaven that he had seen, so he named it after the city of his God. The exalted names given to the golden, red and white sandstone walls and bristling peaks reflect the reverential awe in which they were held by those first visitors: East and West Temples, Great White Throne, Altar of Sacrifice, Court of the Patriarchs, Organ, Pulpit and the vertiginous viewpoint of Angel’s Landing. The latter, a 5790-foot-high spur which hangs over the Upper Canyon, was given its celestial name by a Methodist minister, the Rev Frederick Vining Fisher on a day trip in 1916, after one of his companions had commented: ‘only an angel could land on it’. Angel’s Landing on the north western rim of the canyon was our destination, and we set off from the site of Behunin’s log cabin at Zion Lodge along the river to The Grotto, and over the sturdy metal footbridge across the rushing waters of the Virgin River.

  • The Colorado Plateau
    The Colorado Plateau An OUGS Severnside Field Trip 2015 The Colorado Plateau 2015 Introduction This was to be another Severnside trip, but one with a new organiser! Janet Hiscott and Tom Sharpe had devised the idea for this trip when talking about what he would do in his retirement from the Museum of Wales. The large group of 27 members that collected in Denver at the end of September 2015 were the beneficiaries of this chat. We were all eager to explore the Colorado Plateau with Janet and Tom to guide us. The Colorado Plateau is an area between the Rockies and the Basin and Range Province and extends through parts of 4 states, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona. (Fig. 1) It contains some of the most famous and most visited National Parks of the USA and we were here for 17 days to be introduced to the geology, paleontology and human interaction with and exploitation of the region. The Rockies have been through several cycles of uplift and erosion since the Precambrian, the most recent period of uplift started 5Ma ago and the area has seen a change in elevation of 5000ft. There was associated volcanic activity, building volcanoes and causing a redistribution of metals by heated fluids. The latter having been exploited by man in the Colorado Mineral Belt. The debris eroded from the Rockies during these successive periods of upift was deposited in the plains surrounding them. These sediments, and marine deposits from a period of inundation by an inland sea, form the level beds that comprise the Colorado plateau.
