I want to say Stoney Creek, but I could be wrong.  I've only seen both a few times.

Looks a little more like Stony Creek.  The Stone Canyon tends to be more simplistic in it's brecciation.  I have some from Stone Canyon that got a little wild but still more reflective of what you see in the top or bottom part of that slab but not the middle.  I didn't think of it when I was there but I found a green/brown combo from the edge of the deposit we were at for the field trip and although it has very unusual colors for Stone Canyon it lacked the breciation when it came to those colors.
