Above the San Andreas Fault, Durmid Hill, Imperial County, California
Aerial photograph of the San Andreas Fault (between 'SAF' notes), Durmid Hill, Imperial County, California. The Durmid Hill area was below the high stand of Ancient Lake Cahuella until that lake began to evaporate, in about the 1680s. The erosive wave action of the receding lake shoreline removed almost all soil and other surface cover, resulting in this stark, geologically 'crisp' setting. View to the southeast.
