As you zoom in with your camera on the erosional features at Zabriskie Point in Death Valley NP (California), you can almost believe you are spelunking and viewing the walls of a cave! With some added artistic finishing, the formations take on an other-worldly look. See more here: https://joan-carroll.pixels.com/featured/detail-at-zabriskie-point-artistic-bw-joan-carroll.html

The #glacier went that-a-way
The #striations on this face of the #Ediacaran (ca. 560 Ma) #Squantum Member of the #Roxbury #Conglomerate were probably left by the #Pleistocene #Laurentide ice sheet, which retreated ca. 12 ka. The striations have the right orientation, from northwest to southeast.
The Squantum Member was once interpreted as a (#glacial) #tillite. The most common contemporary model is a peri-#Gondwana #debrite (#turbidite).
