In the vicinity of Virgin Buttes boulders are found rising tothe level of about 2,200 feet. On the north slope, south of the MoreauEiver, evidence of a similar altitude is found by the occurrence of similarnorthern boulders capping Patched Skin Buttes. What seems incon-sistent is the fact that south of the Patched Skin Buttes no drift bouldersare found over a considerable area of less altitude.
