Notes on the geology of Northern California

Diller JS. 1886. Notes on the geology of Northern California. U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Bulletin. 33. U.S. Geological Survey. Washington

Under the general supervision of Capt. C. E. Dutton, I have spent three field seasons in Northern California and Oregon among those complex groups of mountain ridges and ranges whose relation to one another have frequently been a subject of discussion, and it is in the hope of throwing some light upon the structure and connection of these ranges that I desire to note a few observations.
