  1. The West Castleton Fold was the subject of my second ever (non-robotic) GigaPan (share.gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=1204).This shot illustrates the axial region of a recumbant syncline in the Poultney Formation of the Giddings Brook Slice of the Taconic Allochthon. This outcrop is a textbook example of axia...

  5. A famous locality for structural geologists outside Shamokin, Pennsylvania. The Whaleback, the low ridge in the center of the quarry, is the surface of an anticline exposed by coal mining. On the left (east) wall of the quarry one can see the anticline-syncline pair that was the subject of my first ever GigaPan (shot...

  7. A wide view of the West Castleton Fold. The West Castleton Fold was also the subject of my second ever (non-robotic) GigaPan (share.gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=1204).

  8. One of the most famous of localities that demonstrates right lateral offset (of the Wallace Creek streambed, in this case) across the San Andreas Fault.

  9. Just southeast of Pinnacles National Monument and just west of San Benito, CA the San Andreas fault crosses the Airline Highway. See if you can find (the) fault in this GigaPan.
