Excerpt from The Laramie and the Overlying Livingston Formation in Montana In the foothill country, lying at the base of the mountains south of the Yellowstone river, near Livingston, Montana, a series of water-laid strata, composed mainly of volcanic detritus and overlying the coal-bear in g Laramie beds, was observed by the writer in 1890, while studying the geology of the region, in continuation of the work of the Yellow stone park survey. Further exploration proved that the series covers a large part of this region and is separable lithologically and by evi deuces of unconformity into a distinct formation. Measured sections of the strata about the Crazy mountains show a thickness of feet of fresh water sandstones and clays referred to the Laramie. It is now possible to subdivide this great thickness of beds into Laramie, a higher horizon herein named the Livingston, and the still higher beds of the Crazy mountains, which ha've not as yet been differentiated into horizons, but probably represent the Fort Union beds of eastern Montana.
