One 55" x 37.5" plate. From text: These strip maps and associated cross sections result from a program of geologic mapping conducted by graduate students at the University of Texas at Austin. One objective of the program was to complete the mapping necessary for the preparation of geologic sections across the northern Coast Ranges of California and adjacent parts of the Great Valley and southern Klamath Mountains. The published work of John Suppe (1973) was used in constructing the strike section R-U′, The layout of the sections and a sketch of the regional geology is shown on the inset index map. The sections and comments were prepared by J.C. Maxwell. For an earlier and more comprehensive discussion of Coast Range geology illustrated by dip scction A-A′ see Maxwell, 1974. Mapping completed after 1974 was used in the construction of section B-B′, and the extensive newer literature was considered in the preparation of these comments and modifications of section A-A′.
