            Shale,  overlain  by  quartzitic  and  cherty  gravel,  is  exposed  along
          the  creek  near  the  main  spring,  and  sedimentary  rocks  apparently
          form  the hills  near by.

          CARBONATED  SPRING  NEAR  LITTLE  SULPHUR  CREEK  (SONOMA  7).
            A small carbonated spring issues  at the side  of  a gully near Little
          Sulphur Creek,  on the Nelson &  Olsen ranch,  3  miles east of Geyser-
          ville.  It has been used only as a local drinking spring, has not been
          improved,  and is not specially noteworthy.

                         ALDER  GLEN  SPRINGS  (SONOMA  2).
            Alder Glen Springs  form  a resort in  a small canyon 3  miles north-
          west  of  Cloverdale.  In  1909  a  two-story  frame  hotel,  annex,  and
          several  cottages  and  tents  furnished  accommodations  for  about  75
          guests,  and a pavilion and hall were also provided.  On the southern
          side  of  the  stream  channel  the  face  of  the  bank has  been  cemented
          around four basins a yard  apart  that discharge into a common over-
          flow channel.  The  springs  differ somewhat in  taste,  but all  are  car-
          bonated and are also faintly sulphureted.  Small amounts of iron are
          deposited in the basins  and  along  the  overflow  channel.
