Route 27, known as Ciudad Colón-Caldera Highway, offers excellent geological sections showing muchof the volcanic and sub-volcanic stratigraphy of the western part of the Central Valley and the Aguacate Mountainsfoothills. Here a volcaniclastic succession correlated with the Grifo Alto Formation (Pliocene) is exposed. It consistsof lavas, breccias and epivolcanic deposits (hyperconcetrated fluvial and debris avalanches deposits) that locally showstrong propilitic alteration. In some places the succession is slightly to moderately tilted, faulted and cut by dykes. Aseries of old debris avalanche deposits is also present, related to the volcanic activity in the Aguacate Mountains. Lo-cally, a series of monomictic mesobreccias units is exposed...
