OverviewExcerpt from Geology of the San Andreas 15-Minute Quadrangle, Calaveras County, California The rolling upland surface and the northwest-trend ing ridges that rise above the general level of this surface were shaped largely during Late Cretaceous and early Eocene time, when the Sierra Nevada stood much lower than at present. Steep-walled canyons dissect the upland surface in the northeast part Of the quadrangle. These canyons and the canyon of the Stanislaus River in the extreme southeast corner Of the quadrangle are younger features that result from uplift of the Sierra Nevada and more rapid erosion during later Tertiary and, probably, Quaternary time.
