Resistivity survey results at the Bent Canyon Stage Stop. There is an area of relatively lower resistivity at N2.5/E4. This location could possibly represent the location of a privy hole; however, it is also possible that it is caused by geological irregularities in the underlying bedrock. Several high resistivity readings to the north of this low may indicate the close proximity of bedrock to the surface.
