Abstract
The excursion for each day is shown in Fig. 3.1. Excursion 1 consists of a visit to El Papalote diapir in La Popa basin and return via Potrero Chico near Hidalgo to compare diapiric and detachment structures. Excursion 2 is a tour of La Popa weld to observe the structural and stratigraphic variability of that feature. Both excursions, especially Excursion 2, contain ambitious itineraries polished during many trips by the authors; a newcomer to these itineraries might consider allotting additional time to visit all of the stops described here.
