Alex Steele - W7 - Dante's Peak


Here is a photo of Dante’s Peak (Or if you’re a Star Wars fan, Mos Eisley). I noticed a large flat area in between mountain peaks. This is an interesting feature and it indicates fault and plate activity in the area. As the crust is ruptured from the process and lava is deposited on top of the previous sedimentary rock. Using a geologic map, I can identify where the most currently active parts of the area are.
