Black line is where Gene would place the contact. The younger Pico Formation above the angular unconformity is inclined gently toward the north (left). The Llajas Formation below the unconformity is inclined steeply toward the south (right) and is upside down. The oldest Llajas beds are on the right side of the exposure and the youngest ones on the left. During folding these Llajas beds were rotated more than 90 degrees and turned upside down.
