EXPLANATION
Contact
Fault—Dashed where inferred or approximately located; dotted where concealed; bar and ball on downthrown side. Faults shown as bounding alluvium do not offset alluvium. Number is estimated displacement in feet
Folds—Showing trace of axial surface and direction of plunge; dotted where concealed
Monocline—Dashed where approximately located
Strike and dip of beds
Inclined—Measured in the field
Implied—Interpreted from aerial photographs; dip amount not determined
Strike of vertical and subvertical joints
Sinkhole—Enclosed depression or cave
Flow direction of basalt
Volcanic vent
Fracture—Open fracture without offset
Offset fracture—Open fracture with offset
