| Description |
This outcrop is next to Split Mountain in Dinosaur National Monument, Utah, through which the Green River has erosionally carved a prominent canyon (off frame, to the left). The reddish-colored rocks are hematite-rich, fine-grained siliciclastics of the Moenkopi Formation (Triassic). Gypsum is common in parts of the Moenkopi. Structurally, this is the southern flank of the Split Mountain Anticline, which strikes east-west and plunges westward. This is also the northern flank of the Jensen Syncline.
