Geo 365: Jan. 17, Day 17: The Whole Cut

A final shot of the road cut shown over the last few days, showing most of the cut into these lacustrine sediments, looking roughly WSW down the grade. Tuesday's shot was taken from approximately where the oncoming truck is in this shot. Tomorrow we'll drive up the hill a bit, and see what this stuff looks like when it's been affected by Basin and Range style faulting...
