No GeoTIFF is available for this photo.Image Caption: West-central Mexico. Spanning the region from Saltillo in the interior to Los Mochis on the Pacific coast, this fine westerly view covers a tectonic nexus for which we have few photos. The narrow sinuous ridges in the foreground are folds of the Sierra Madre Oriental, formed about 60 million years ago (Laramide). The dark, rugged ranges farther west are the ~35-million-year-old volcanic rocks of the Sierra Madre Occidental. Cutting both are north-trending faults (center of view) that became active about 25 million years ago.
