Goodhuewilliamv1987 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF William V. Goodhue Jr. for the degree of Master of Science in Geology presented on May 9, 1986 Title: Bedrock Geology and Stratigraphy of the Northern Parts of the Arinstead and Madigan Gulch Anticlines, Beaverhead County, Montana. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Approximately 18 square miles are included in the study area which lies 17 miles southwest of the town of Dillon, Montana. Strata exposed in the area include metamorphic, sedimentary, and volcanic rocks ranging in age from Precambrian to Recent. The Paleozoic and Mesozoic section is approximately 8000 feet thick and includes conglomerates, sandstones, siltstones, shales, cherts, carbonates, and andesite flows and tuffs. These rocks are divided into 18 formations. Cenozoic strata include basalt flows and volcaniclastic rocks, unconsolidated gravels, alluvium, colluvium, and landslide deposits. The study area, located on the western edge of the Paleozoic-Mesozoic Cordilleran cratonic shelf, was dominated by marine sedimentation in shallow to moderate water depths from Middle Cambrian to Late Jurassic time. Eustatic sea level changes, and epeirogenic movements on the shelf and in adjacent areas, acted alone or in concert to effect numerous episodes of subaerial exposure and erosion on the shelf during this period. Cretaceous rocks consist of thick accumulations of syorogenic conglomerates and sandstones of the Beaverhead Formation. These rocks reflect increasing diastrophism on the cratonic shelf and within the adjacent geosyncline to the west. Laramide deformation culminated within the study area in Late Cretaceous time, forming large, north- to northwest trending folds and the low angle, east-verging Tendoy and Indian Head thrust faults. These thrust faults are thought to involve both the Phanerozoic sedimentary strata and the underlying Precambrian metamorphic basement. Volcanic activity, in the form of andesite flows and tuffs, closely followed the period of maximum deformation. An extensional tectonic regime, which resulted in normal faulting and the formation of block-faulted ranges and subsiding basins, developed in the study area during Oligocene time and continues to the present. The faulting was accompanied, probably in Eocene time, by basaltic volcanic activity.

I would like to thank Dr. Keith F. Oles for his advice, encouragement, and prompt critical reading of this manuscript. My gratitude also goes out to the late Dr. Harold E. Enlows, for his assistance with petrographic analyses, and to Drs. J.G. Johnson and L.W. Snee for their critical reading of this manuscript and their advice and guidance. Discussions with Dr. R. Pearson, Dr. E. Ruppel, Dr. R. Scholten, Ed Maughan, Herb Saperstone, and Dr. B. Wardlaw contributed greatly to my understanding of the local structure and stratigraphy. My thanks go out to all of them. I would particularily like to thank my friend Ed Maughan for taking the time to accompany me for several days in the field. Assistance in identifying fossils by Drs. Charles Ross, Gary Lane, and Michael Hansen is also greatly appreciated. Discussions with fellow students and collegues, Charlie Clarke, Tom Dill, Gail Hildreth, Dave Byrne, and Cohn Key helped to reinforce or negate many hypotheses which evolved during the writing of this thesis. The financial support provided by Tenneco Oil Company is thankfully acknowledged. In addition, the assistance of the expert drafting staff of the Oil and Gas Division of Unocal, Bernie Kirsch, Lang Taylor, and Julio Soto, is greatly appreciated. Last but by no means least, I would like to thank my field assistant, fishing partner, and good friend Kathryn Munro for always being there. I couldn't have done it without you, Katy.

Box 36800 Billings, Montana 59107-6800 Agreement No. 1422E930A960015, Task Order No. 5 January, 1998 © 1998 Montana Natural Heritage Program This document should be cited as follows: Vanderhorst, J. and B. L. Heidel. 1998. Conservation status of Lomatium attenuatum Evert in Montana. Unpublished report to the Bureau of Land Management. Montana Natural Heritage Program, Helena. 20 pp. + app. SUMMARY There are nine occurrences of Lomatium attenuatum (Taper-tip Desert-parsley) known in Montana. These are from Beaverhead and Madison counties with three geographic centers in the Grasshopper Creek drainage, the Ruby Range, and the Tendoy Range. Most populations are on lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management, followed by Beaverhead National Forest and Montana state lands. Total population numbers in Montana are estimated between 10,000 and 100,000 plants, comparable with total numbers found in Wyoming, the only other place where this species occurs. Populations face few direct threats, but invasions of exotic weeds and mining may potentially threaten the species in the future. Due to relatively high population numbers, wide ecological amplitude, and low degree of threats, current BLM Sensitive status is recommended changed to Watch status.

  • TOM MINER LODGE Emigrant, Montana
    TOM MINER LODGE Emigrant, Montana ©Legacy Lands, LLC www.legacylandsllc.com Tom Miner Lodge Emigrant, Montana Introduction Some of the best things in life are hidden in plain sight, and Paradise Valley’s Tom Miner Basin is definitely one of them. As you approach the Tom Miner Basin turnoff along US Hwy 89, the Paradise Valley view turns into relatively arid rocky hills with dry grass and juniper. Turning off at the Tom Miner Road, you travel via a quaint old iron trussed bridge over the Yellowstone River and begin the ascent into Tom Miner Basin. As you travel along this road, the landscape makes a dramatic change from rocky, dry, juniper-covered hills to lush mountain meadows with thick Aspen groves. Continuing on, you pass neighboring ranches with lush grass and aspen. The panoramic view changes with each season. Spring brings the greening of the grass and the budding of the trees, yet the dramatic mountain peaks keep their blanket of white. Song birds return, and wildflowers pop up through the pastures with the lovely fresh colors of spring. Almost any animal that calls Yellowstone Park home can be seen in the basin. In summer, the valley and mountains take on the lush green of grass and trees. In the fall, the colors change to yellows, oranges and reds, while the mountains begin their transition to white with early snowfall. Winter at Tom Miner Lodge offers the brilliant, sparkling white of snow on the basin floor as well as the mountain peaks. ©Legacy Lands, LLC www.legacylandsllc.com Location This custom home is located in the Tom Miner Basin of Paradise Valley, 39 miles south of Livingston, Montana and 17 miles north of Gardiner, Montana (the northern entrance to Yellowstone National Park).
