Geology of the Cobblestone Creek-May Creek area, east-central Brooks Range Foothills, Alaska

Geology of the Cobblestone Creek-May Creek area, east-central Brooks Range Foothills, Alaska, Preliminary Interpretive Report 2009-5, presents a 1:63,360 scale geologic map of the Cobblestone Creek-May Creek area of the foothills of the Endicott Mountains. This map is one of a series of areas selected for detailed mapping to document important structural and stratigraphic relationships at the east-central Brooks Range mountain front. The Cobblestone Creek-May Creek area is important in delineating the stratigraphic and structural relationships in this area because, unlike the adjacent valleys of the Itkillik and Nanushuk rivers, Cobblestone and May Creeks were not glaciated during the Pleistocene, and thus bedrock exposures are generally more continuous. The complete report, geodatabase, and ESRI fonts and style files are available from the DGGS website: http://doi.org/10.14509/19661.
