The San Andreas fault


Looking west from Joshua Tree, with the San Andreas fault running straight across in the middel distance
 One of the many advantages of being on sabbatical in Los Angeles is the opportunity to visit some prime geomorphological sites.  On a recent trip to the Joshua Tree National Park I had this great view over the San Andreas Fault from a local viewpoint.  As you can see the fault really does have a clear landscape presence.
