Here’s a picture I took, on the way home from tilting yesterday, of our house seen from the other side of the valley. We live in the white house in the middle, and behind the house is that enormous escarpment, pretty much exactly as our geography teacher drew one when I was about fourteen.
So the outcrop is a likely feature of the escarpment, which itself is caused by the tilting of sedimentary layers? I feel confused. (But at least we weren’t burnt to death yesterday in the forest fire – only temporarily evacuated. No houses harmed but sadly one person died.)
Sorry about the fire. Continue to the post after next to find out about tilting.
