of Watkins. (Same scale as Fig. 7.) 
In the Seneca valley, Montour creek (Fig. 12), Watkins 
creek (Fig. 13), and Big and Rock streams, on the Avest side, 
each hang at about 1500 feet above the deepest known point 
in the Seneca valley, which is io8o feet;* and the Odessa (Fig. 
14) and Burdett valleys (Figs. 15 and 22), on the east side, 
are also hanging about 1500 feet above the deepest point in 
the main vallev.

It is to be understood that these figures are only approx- 
imate, and subject to correction whenever borings may reveal 
the actual rock floors of these valleys. That the tributary 
valleys are hanging, and hanging several hundred feet above 
present lake level, in both Cayuga and Seneca valleys, is be- 
yond question. In each of the valleys selected the rock has 
been traced at least as high up as the level mentioned- with 
such continuity as to exclude the possibility of a broad, mature, 
drift-filled valley. In each case, too, it is probable that the 
real bottom of the hanging valley is higher than the figures 
•The deepest point in Seneca lake is 618 feet; but at Watkins, near the 
mhJdle of the vallev, a boring of 1080 feet failed ti> reach the bottom of the 
drift.
