  1. Curved gouges, possibly left by faulting, in a rock outcrop in Milford, CT. These marks are hard to see far away - zoom in and pan around to see them better... the direction changes from vertical near the bottom of the outcrop to more horizontal near the top.

  2. Some nice sets of crossbeds (angled sedimentary bedding) in sandstone (Wahweap formation, according to my field notes). The angled beds formed in a sand dune, most likely, that is preserved now in the rocks. The compass is for scale...

  7. When I first saw this sort of feature outcropping in a roadcut in Big Thompson Canyon, Colorado I thought they resesmbled dinosaur footprints. However, since these are found in Precambrian metamorphic rocks that is clearly not the case. In fact, this is probably some sort of metamorphosed concretion(?). This GigaPan...

  10. 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...
