What is Structural Models of Skytop Formations about?
This document compares two structural models for the geology at Skytop in central Pennsylvania. The overturned fold model depicts rock layers folded into an overturned anticline, while the imbricate thrust model shows the layers involved in multiple thrust faults. Both models show the Tuscarora Formation in the west overlying younger rock layers in the east separated by a thrust fault, and landslides occurring on the limbs of the fold or fault surfaces.
