Ref.#14 4457 ~ Galleros Formation, Grand Canyon, approx. mile 119
The strata of Grand Canyon is an enormous record of geologic history. These layers in the Nankoweep/Chuar Group represent geology from 740 to 800 Million years ago. The purplish marine sandstone, about 800 million years old, contains three unconformities, and much of its geologic story is missing. The “rainbow” effect of this layer absolutely caught my attention as a unique geologic feature in the canyon. Later research into its mystery became even more fascinating.
