Folded Rocks - Explored!
I took this as a snapshot out of the window of a moving express train travelling (I think!) from Interlaken to Berne (I didn't take notes on this trip). The map location is therefore somewhat arbitrary!
The 90˚ bend in the folded strata is indicative of some very considerable pressures being exerted on the rock layers. The multiple, relatively-fine layers might suggest sedimentary rocks but I can't confirm that.
I know there are even more spectacular examples in Switzerland but this was the best that I saw.
