Ketobe Knob, a thrust fault 역단층, 쓰러스트 단층

3D Model

Ketobe Knob is a fault system with multiple reverse faults (thrust faults) that exhibits vertical offset of about 10 m in sandstones and siltstones of the Entrada Sandstone (reddish lower part) and Curtis Formation, part of the Jurassic stratigraphy of the Colorado Plateau (Fossen, 2013; Martin, 2018). It located about 20 km southeast of Huntington, Utah and along the western margin of Cedar Mountain near the northern extent of the San Rafael swell.

The diameter of the ground circle in this 3D model measures about 180 meters. The pictures taken on June 11, 2018.
