Slim Buttes show at the northern end 240 feet, near the middle on the western side 180 feet, and at the southern end about 140 feet. The section on the north is made up of a soft white sand- stone, 135 to 140 feet underlain by a 100-foot bed of dark to light colored contorted clays. The sections measured on the western side and at the southern end are more varied.
