    Calloway Creek limestone and Ashlock and Drakes formations (Upper Ordovician) in south-central Kentucky / by: Weir, Gordon W. ,, et al. Published: () The Helderberg limestone of central Pennsylvania / by: Reeside, John B. , Published: (). The Mountain Sheep prospect is in Triassic Nikolai Greenstone about 60 feet below its contact with the overlying Triassic Chitistone Limestone (Van Alstine and Black, , p. ). Disseminated pyrite, bornite, and a little chalcopyrite occur in shattered greenstone. About 1 percent bornite occurs in fractured zones as much as one inch thick. The airstrip is tucked along side the river with vertical limestone cliffs of Chitstone Canyon towering feet above. Just beside the airstrip are two public use cabins. Hiking is limited here by the Chitistone River but views are great and there is ample room to wander on short hikes from the cabin. The Nizina River flows out of the Nizina Glacier and into the heart of the Wrangell Mountains from a point not far from the divide with the St Elias Mountains to the east. This area is a part of the largest protected parklands in the world and from near its source, it offers a mile or mile trip with moderate Class III difficulties.
