Normal fault in the Fort Hays member of the Cretaceous Niobrara Formation, south of Stockton, Kansas. These chalk beds were originally deposited in the shallow Western Interior Seaway about 80 million years ago. The thick beds of the Fort Hays member are extensively bioturbated. Faulting is post-Cretaceous and pre-Quaternary. |

The Cherhill White Horse is a hill figure on Cherhill Down, 3.5 miles east of Calne in the county of Wiltshire, England. Dating from the late 18th century, it is the third oldest of several such white horses to be seen around Great Britain, with only the Uffington White Horse and the Westbury White Horse being older. The figure is also sometimes called the Oldbury White Horse. |

180+ degree panorama along 12 Road in southern Rooks County, Kansas. The distant cliff formed by the cutbank of a small stream exposes the rarely seen contact between the Fort Hays and Smoky Hill members of the Upper Cretaceous Niobrara Chalk. The Fort Hays member is characterized by thick bioturbated chalk beds whereas the overlying Smoky Hill chalk is thinly bedded and rarely exposed in extensive outcrops. |
