Excerpt from Report of the Exploring Expedition: From Santa Fé, New Mexico, to the Junction of the Grand and Green Rivers of the Great Colorado of the West, in 1859; With Geological Report
General: I have this clay forwarded to you the Geological Report of Dr. J. S. Newberry, geologist of the San Juan exploration party, which went from Santa Fé, New Mexico, to the vicinity of the junction of Grand and Green Rivera, in Utah, and back to Santa Fe, in the summer of 1859, and which party was in my charge.
This is the report to which I alluded in my report to yon of November 1, 1860, as setting forth whatever the route above mentioned afforded of interest to the public at large or to the man of science. I trust it may be found possible to publish it.
The report is arranged in seven chapters, with a prefatory note, and is accompanied by the following sketches and drawings, viz:
Eleven water-color sketches, showing characteristic scenery of the region in Northwestern New Mexico, South western Colorado, and Southeastern Utah. Also, eleven drawings (eight of fossils and three of scenery), all of winch are interesting and important in connection with the report.
My map of the route was engraved on a steel plate, and is on the files of the Engineer Department.
