Description:
This slide shows those distal rocks that were deposited during phase two, but thrust back over the passive margin during the Antler Orogeny (mountain building episode). It is hard to say exactly how thick the deposits were or what the sedimentation rate because during orogeny the rocks were highly deformed and imbricated like cards to that there is a great deal of repeated section.
