Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from The Eastern Front of the Bitterroot Range Montana

The origin of the impressively straight part of the Bitterroot Range on the western border of the long valley in which Hamilton, Mont., is the principal settlement has been a matter of debate among geologists since Lindgren's reconnaissance in 1899. He was impressed by the straightness of the mountain front, and in his report (1904) he called attention to the smooth slopes, which he estimated to be inclined at angles of 15° He interpreted these smooth inclined slopes to mean that the rocks composing this part of the Bitterroot Range com prise a sheet of pressed and deformed granite that resulted from normal faulting of low dip, involving both stretching and shearing of the rocks.
