Folded Rock Layers
Description:
Folded rock layers revealed as Route 68 cuts through Sideling Hill in Maryland. These layers of sandstone, conglomerates and coaly shales (black) were deposited during the Mississippian Period, then folded when the North American and African plates collided in the Late Permian/Early Triassic.
