In the southeastern part of the Mogollon-Datil volcanic field, the upper beds of the Bell Top Formation define the break between the Mogollon Group and the Datil Group. Here the Bell Top rests on the 33.51 Ma Box Canyon Tuff, the uppermost unit of the Datil Group, and below the 28.56 Ma Vicks Peak Tuff, the lowest tuff of the Mogollon Group. In other locations, it overlies the Palm Park Formation.
