Wyoming Geological Association 36th Annual Field Conference Guidebook 1985 The Cretaceous Geology of Wyoming Editor GERALD E. NELSON Casper, Wyoming: September 8-11, 1985
EDITOR: Gerald Nelson 184 pages, 14 papers, 2 road logs, plates in pocket This guidebook includes studies of the Cretaceous in all physiographic or tectonic provinces in Wyoming. Oil and gas studies cover Amos Draw, Buck Draw, House Creek and Meeteetse fields. Stratigraphic papers discuss the upper Cretaceous in the eastern Powder River Basin, the Grieve paleovalley in the eastern Wind River Basin, Lower Cretaceous paleogeography in the Big Muddy/South Glenrock area, the Lewis Shale in South-Central Wyoming, and Fall River deltaic systems in the Powder River Basin. Hydrodynamic flow in the Muddy Formation in the northeastern Powder River Basin is discussed in one paper. The road logs are of field trips in central Wyoming with stops at Teapot, Parkman, Shannon, Frontier, Mowry, Muddy and Dakota outcrops; the Alcova anticline, Casper Arch, and Teapot Dome; and Salt Creek, Buck Draw and Schrader Flats fields.
