A famous locality for structural geologists outside Shamokin, Pennsylvania. The Whaleback, the low ridge in the center of the quarry, is the surface of an anticline exposed by coal mining. On the left (east) wall of the quarry one can see the anticline-syncline pair that was the subject of my first ever GigaPan (shot handheld from on the crest of the Whaleback): http://www.gigapan.org/gigapans/1201/ |
