first outcrop

my first outcrop for the year and hopefully not my last...

this is said to be a cinder cone but what interested me more are the structures seen on the outcrop. the fault cuts across the whole length and height of the outcrop and can be seen from the displacements between beds. we even see normal faulting!

what is fun here though is to have shared this time with my friends from university who shares the same passion as mine. even their families are now looking at rocks with us! :)
