Denali Fault
At pass west of Delta River. Here there was roughly 5 m of offset. Note the push up in the background. There is permafrost at the bottom of the cracks....
Denali Fault: Black Rapids Glacier
View eastward along Black Rapids Galcier. The Denali fault follows the trace of the glacier. These very large rockslides went a mile across the glacier on the right side. Investigations of the headwall of the middle landslide indicate a volume at least as large as that which fell, has dropped a mete...

Denali Fault: Canwell/Chistochina Glaciers
View west over pass between Canwell and Chistochina Glaciers. Two fault traces here may indicate the glacier ice is influencing the fault trace....
Denali Fault: Chistochina Glacier
West fork of Chistochina Glacier. Denali fault trace here is parallel to the moraine, indicating that the structure of the glacier ice is influencing the surface trace of the fault....
Denali Fault: Gillette Pass
View north of Denali fault trace at Gillette Pass. this view shows that the surface rupture reoccupies the previous fault scarp. Also the right-lateral offset of these stream gullies has developed since deglaciation in the last 10,000 years or so....

View down west fork of Chistochina Glacier. Denali fault can be seen crossing the glacier, Wrangell volcanoes in the distance....
Denali Fault: Fault Trace
Fault trace in trees west of the Mentasta Road. Tallest trees are perhaps 40 feet tall....
Denali Fault: Landslides
View southward toward Mt. McGinnis and two large landslides on the northeastern side. These slides had roughly 40 million cubic meters of material and travelled 10 km down glacier. This is the cover photo of the May 16th, 2003, Science....
