Logs of Selected Test Holes in the Neosho River Valley

The following logs of 39 test holes, selected because of their geographic location in the valley and position in regard to the present course of the Neosho River, were used in the compilation of the geologic sections. Logs of additional test holes may be consulted in the files of the U.S. and State Geological Survey offices, Lawrence, Kans.

All altitudes were interpolated from modern 7 1/2-minute topographic maps.
