- Description
-
Coarse conglomerate flood deposit that marks the mode and timing of the first arrival of Colorado River water into Mohave Valley, NV-CA-AZ. Approximately 5.59 million years ago, a freshwater lake in Cottonwood Valley overflowed and breached the bedrock divide separating it from Mohave Valley. This flood deposit is the record of that event.

that is some really cool erosional topography at the base of the Pyramid gravel; if we mapped that in detail with hi-precision GPS, I wonder if we couldn't get a pretty good 3D picture of the erosion surface and a more precise sense of flow direction from the orientation of the erosional grooves
