RESEARCH IN CHINA. PLATE XLIX. 

Ta-miau-ssi, Ssi-ch’uan, atlas sheet d6, View from point about a mile south looking across the Ta-ning-ho at Tung-kuan-k’6u. 
In foreground are slopes of Sin-t’an shale. Cols and summits 1,500 to 2,000 feet above the river probably represent old stage 
of the valley. Gorge 1,200 feet deep leads down through the Wu-shan limestone to the river, beyond which rises a peak of the 
same formation. The mountain behind consists of earlier Paleozoic rocks overthrust upon the Wu-shan.
