There’s a local beach where you can see bluffs of strata heaved up at about 45 degrees. That occurred about 14 million years ago, I believe. Atop them are a number of feet of sandstone...former ocean bottom, a hundred feet above current sea level. In the intertidal zone are some large cedar stumps, from trees that lived a few hundred years ago, that were dropped below current sea level in a big earthquake in 1700. Cascadia Subduction Zone. Hell of a ride.
Weeeee!!! Plate tectonics and interglacial events FTW!
