Excerpt from Guide to the Geology of the Upper Schuylkill Valley
The Pennsylvania Topographic and Geologic Survey is engaged in publishing guidebooks to the geology of several localities Of partiar interest in the State. Some Of these guides are based upon the annual trips of the Field Conference Of Pennsylvania Geologists, others are derived from a series Of educational field trips in geology which the Survey has sponsored Since 1935. The present excursion is based upon one Of the latter which started at Pottsville and ran south to Hamburg. However, in the reed form, that trip has been amplified along the route north Of Hamburg, and has been prolonged southward to embrace the section at West Leesport. One Of the educational trips was held at Reading, and (bulletin G 15) a guidebook to the geology about that city can be purchased from the Bureau Of Publica tion-s at Harrisburg. This book will tie in with the southern end Of the present account.
The section is located partly in Schuylkill County, partly in Berks County. It extends along the Schuylkill Valley, following, save for a few Short side trips, U. S. Highway 122 between Pottsville and Lees port. The entire section is contained on the Pottsville, Hamburg and Reading topographic sheets Of the United States Geological Survey.
