This guidebook contains geologic road logs for a three-day field trip on the coal resources of northwestern New Mexico. The first day focuses on the Madrid coal field, northeast of Albuquerque. The second and third days are devoted to the coals of the San Juan Basin. The guidebook also contains three technical papers covering the Cretaceous stratigraphy of the Madrid coal field, the palynology of the Crevasse Canyon and Menefee Formations, and the availability of ground water for coal development in the San Juan Basin.
