Cath [Cathedral] rocks
N side near Ind Can [Indian Canyon] Section on S [South] side Valley
Now since we are here the stumps of granite slabs and columns which have been broken off and removed there is [ ] reason why we should not be allowed to suppose that the space between a and b [although covered] forming the bottom of the valley although covered by debris from above also is paved with stumps and if so then the valley has been eroded in many places [covers] as deep have [ bare] bottoms shaved the fragments of the layers in question.
Probably prepared as illustration for Sierra Studies series. Note on verso: "Notes Big Tuol. Can Merced Can etc."
