Summary Annotation Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series, Volume 169.In 1824, Amos Eaton (1776-1842) published a "Geological Profile extending from the Atlantic to Lake Erie" in the pamphlet "A geological and agricultural survey of the district adjoining the Erie canal, in the state of New-York" (Eaton, 1824). The proftle is over four and one-half feet long (1.4 meters); it displays the geology from Boston, Mass., via Albany to Buffalo, N.Y., as Eaton understood it. The present excursion is designed to follow ap-proximately the line of that profile and to show some of the stepsby which our knowledge of that geology has evolved in the intervening 165 years.
