RUTA 1 PUNTO 10 Y RUTA 2 PUNTO 10

Punto 10: Los Radiolites (Plano Ruta 1) (Plano Ruta 2)

Muchas veces las mayores joyas las escondemos para que nadie las encuentre, es nuestro pequeño tesoro, lo que guardamos con anhelo. Quizás no sea el más valioso, pero lo guardamos por alguno relación especial con él.

Bajo este puente que cruza el arroyo de la hoceca, la naturaleza nos da un pequeño regalo. Si nos asomamos es posible encontrar un pequeño parche de Radiolites, bastante desgastados por el agua que corre por el fondo. Sin embargo es fácil apreciar la concha gruesa con esa morfología en “falda de gitana”  y la concha sin apenas estructuras internas aparte de un pequeño ligamento. 

Una de esas casualidades que nos da la naturaleza es en la época de deshielo cuando la hoceca transporta un caudal relativamente elevado podemos ver estos rudistas bajo el agua. Es en este momento en el que podemos imaginarnos ahora si sumergidos este arrecife que cubría toda la villa de Castrojimeno.

ROUTE 1 WAYPOINT 8, ROUTE 2 WAYPOINT 4 AND ROUTE 3 WAYPOINT 4

  Waypoint 8: The reef. (Map route 1) (Map route 2) (Map route 3) We arrive at what it may be the most important waypoint of the route, the Sistine Chapel or the Sancta sanctorum of Castrojimeno Village. Here we arrive at the reef itself, what corresponds to the facies C and D (already described previously), where we see the sucession of fossils that are substituted eventually, depending on the dynamic conditions, in particular Radiolites Sauvagesi, Hippurites Incisus that are really close which are substituted with clustering of Biradiolites angulosus, Radiolites Sauvagesi and Hippurites incisus. As we have mentioned, this sucession is the reef itself in different zones of the barrier and with small variations generated of storms or the different positions that conform the barrier of the reef. The most interesting parts of this point are not only the fossils, that present a perfect state of conservation, but also the detailed analysis of the suecssion of fossils and the strata that

ROUTE 1 WAYPOINT 12

Imagen
  Waypoint 12: The meeting point rock      Map route 1 As we move on, we continue with the unit of Dolomites of Montejo. Here wwe can see similarities with waypoint 3 but increased in magnitude. If we saw previously eroded ground and diluted by water, here the effect is larger, generating big, well-formed exokarstic structures. It is outstanding the rock just in front of us, the meeting point rock, symbol of Castrojimeno. Here two paths meet (right and left) and that continue in the path we have been following until this point. This structure called "Tor" has remained isolated, even though a few metres away we can find similar structure of smaller size. It represents an isolated block of the large dolomitic unit were we find ourselves. Another curious fact is that if we take notice of the position of the strata, they are slightly tilted, more than the rest, which determines that this is possibly a dumped block or partially rotated.
