Can anyone tell me how this mountain formed? (BC Canada)
This is a screen shot of some drone footage I saw on a an off-roading YouTube channel. The mountain is somewhere in the Canadian Rockies in BC.
I don’t know much about Geology, but this rock “wave” doesn’t fit with my understanding of how the Rockies were formed. Instead of a range of hard rock getting pushed up where two plates meet, this rock looks like warm taffy.
Can anyone give me some more information? I’d look it up, but I don’t know the name of the mountain or even exactly where it is in BC.
