Panoramic picture of Roberts Mesa on the Hopi Reservation of northern Arizona. The contact between the lower/upper Bidahochi is demarcated by the red/green boundary. Notice variation in bedding of upper Bidahochi, which is dominated by fluvial cross-bedded and planar tabular bedding of well-sorted fine to medium sand with abundant carbonate cement.
