These include the Teton fault, at the base of the Teton Range; the Star Valley fault, bounding the east side of the Star Val-ley; the Greys River fault in northeastern Lincoln County; the Rock New WSGS maps define fault lines, landslide risk, and 8 million years of “missing time” By Oil City Staff on May 15, 2020 WSGS geologists Derek Lichtner and Seth Wittke map atop Middle Ridge, with the Salt River Range in the background.

The Wyoming State Geological Survey (WSGS) published a new map depicting the Teton fault, a potential source of large earthquakes. copyright cccarto.com. Disclaimer:. Upward slippage of the fault's … 1:250,000, fault location may be inferred or is poorly constrained. It is the most detailed mapping ever completed across the length of the fault, which spans the eastern base of the Teton Range in northwestern Wyoming. Note* The earthquake faults are color coded by unique name and section not type. geologic maps of the Precambrian basement in the Western United States (for Wyoming and Colorado, Sims and others, 2001; for Montana, Sims and others, 2002, 2004; for Idaho, Sims and others, 2005) followed by preparation of a Precam-brian structure map of the continental United States (Sims and others, 2008). The Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology provides an online interactive map of earthquake information for Montana, much of Idaho and Wyoming, and nearby areas of Washington, Oregon, North Dakota, South Dakota, Alberta, and British Columbia. tive faults are exposed at the surface.

The map provides the locations, dates, and magnitudes of historical earthquakes. Upward slippage of the fault’s western edge has pushed the mountains to their present height of some 7,000 feet (2,130 meters) above Jackson Hole in Grand Teton National Park. USGS The basement mapping relied heavily on A series of faults in western Wyoming (Figure 2) are capable of magnitude 7.2 to 7.5, intensity X earthquakes.

The data available on the Wyoming County GIS Web Map Application, including all Geographic Information Systems data, maps, tables, numbers, graphics, and text (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Information"), is provided on an "As Is", "As Available" and "With All Faults" basis. A strike-slip fault is when two blocks slip past one another, like the San Andreas Fault line.
