A rather simple assemblage of zeolites is found in vesicular brownish-red Miocene basalt in the gutter of the Forest Service road along Tamarack Creek 4 miles from the bend at Burnt Cabin Creek, northeast of Spray, Wheeler County, Oregon. The site was found by Rudy Tschernich when the road was first developed in 1976.
