Description

This black and white photograph features the Claggett shales. The shales have a rocky texture, and the top of the middle Claggett has a weathered, eroded look. At the bottom left of the middle Claggett, Eagle sandstone is visible. The stratified sandstone is lighter in color, has a smooth texture compared to the shales, and is coming up at an angle through the Claggett. The foreground of the photo is covered in grass, although it is patchy at the front. Underneath the photo is an inscription written by Sternberg.
