Are these really the Brazos Mountains?

It should be noted that according to the USGS place names database, there apparently is no such place as the "Brazos Mountains". As near as I can tell, the range has no official name, although "Brazos Mountains" is in local use. Paalexan (talk) 21:20, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

New Mexico - Scenic USA source

I find this source questionable. The assertion that the quartzite Brazos Cliffs were formed largely by volcanic action is geologically implausible; quartzite usually forms from metamorphosis of sandstones formed by sedimentary processes. Furthermore, while I don't have the sources in front of me, the papers on Precambrian geology of northern New Mexico from the New Mexico Geologic Society that I've read suggest that the Precambrian quartzites of northern New Mexico formed by sedimentation in a back-arc basic that subsequently closed.

Can we at least remove the quote from the footnote, which makes this highly dubious assertion? --Kent G. Budge (talk) 14:59, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
