My Fault..

I'm not a geologist, but i can appreciate a good rock when I see one. I was working the other day with a geologist from work. We were in an area where they were building a huge dam and they had excavated an entire hill down to bedrock. He said there was a fault in the area and I said that I wouldn't even know a fault if I saw one, the only fault I know anything about is of the plate tectonic variety. And then I looked down and there it was. Pretty Cool!!

Its kinda difficult to tell from the picture but its pretty cool to see in person.

Oh ya, and I'm gonna start blogging again on a regular basis in the near future.

So--is it that white line down the middle?

Is it a fault because it is irregular and that indicates movement of the earth?

I need a little more info here Col.
