FIGURE 2—The above diagram shows the valley that has been filled with sand and gravel particles brought down by rivers flowing into it from the highland areas on both sides. The lava came up from below through the cracks in the original fault.
FIGURE 3—This diagram illustrates the pressure that was exerted from both sides of the original fault. Notice the tilting of the very hard rock that broke into large sections, rather than crumbling as softer rocks would have done under such force. Also, take notice of the rock that protrudes through the surface. It is a simplified drawing which depicts the formation of such landmarks as East and West Rock in New Haven.
