Scenic Trips to the Geologic Past # 1
Santa Fe

By B. Baldwin and F. E. Kottlowski, second edition, 1968, 58 pages (reprinted 1970).

This handbook evolved from a technical study of geology and ground-water resources in the Santa Fe area. Four trips around the historic capital city share the fun of geology with the layman, whether visitor or resident, and tell the geologic story of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Hyde Memorial StatePark area, and Santa Fe plateau. Historical notes are included on Santa Fe, the longest continuously occupied capital and oldest seat of government in the United States.
