Not Stone Canyon. There is a brecciated jasper in nodules from around Figueroa Peak in southern California but your example looks like Spence Brecciated Jasper from Wyoming that is also nodular in form. I think it has another more accepted name but danged if I can remember it. I think someone here posted a pic of some one time or maybe it's n the Agate Index..Mel
Oops, just flashed on it: Fluted Jasper from Greybull, WY.

It is in the latest Index(pg 92) One of my club's members (Jim Brace-Thompson who has a lot of articles in Rock and Gem Mag) produced a couple pics I believe I used.
I has a thick grey rind in the examples I've seen.
I also think it's in Agates and Jaspers by Ron Gibbs for additional images.
