Below are links to photographs taken in the Tucson Mountains area. The
first two buttons are overview images, whereas the others are images tied to
sample numbers. The buttons
to the far left of the sample number are close ups of the rock samples.
These may help you identify the rock type, by showing the larger context of the
sample (layers or not, etc.). The buttons immediately next to the
sample number show a middle distance photograph of the sample location to
provide you with a perspective of what kinds of landscapes that rock type forms.
