These ripple marks can be seen by the side of HWY12 where it cuts through the South Range (see below for close-up). Because we know such features are formed initially horizontally, we can say that they have beed tilted. They dip 20 degrees towards the north and demonstrate the dip of the South Range of the syncline. Smaller examples can also be seen on the quartzite within the park on both the West and East Bluffs' trails.



In the old quarry at the southern entrance to the Upper Narrows (at Rock Springs, behind the spring's water bottling plant) we can see more ripples. But recall that the north limb of the syncline has been tilted almost 90 degrees -- as the ripples here demonstrate on this vertical face of the quarry (again, a close-up is given below).
