Abstract

The Dry Valley quadrangle is one of seven 71-minute quadrangles in southeastern Idaho being mapped by the U. S. Geological Survey as part of an investigation of the western phosphate field. This work was done on behalf of the Division of Raw Materials of the Atomic Energy Commission. Most of the quadrangle was mapped on a new 1:12,000 topographic base during the summer and fall of 1950 by E. R. Cressman and R. A. Gulbrandsen with the assistance of K. B. Krauskopf, K. Lutz, and J. W. Hill. The field work was completed in the fall of 1951 by Cressman and assisted by R. G. Waring and M. A. Warner. This quadrangle is the NEI of the Slug Creek 15-minute quadrangle, which was mapped by Mansfield (1927) at a scale of 1:62,500.
