R. 99.5

_Fox Valley._ Down-warped flows of Picture Gorge Basalt dip toward Fox

Valley from all sides to form a basin (Fig. 12). The valley is eroded

out of ashy beds and gravels of the Mascall Formation which fill the

center of the basin to an estimated depth of 1000-1200 feet. Faults form

parts of the northern and southern borders of the basin. The straight,

timbered, northward-facing steep slope less than a mile southeast of the

viewpoint marks a fault.
