It is a moderately mature multicycle deposit with a composition covering the subarkose range. It is cut by a major west-dipping low-angle thrust fault. Northeasterly movement of Pleistocene glaciation can account for the known distribution of indicators from this formation. This content is PDF only. Please click on the PDF icon to access.
