Quartz-feldspar gneiss and horneblende gneiss
Gneiss, schist & quartzite. Paleoproterozoic, about 2,500 to 1,600 million years old. 21 crags on this site have their map point on it.
What the map says
Interlayered dark-gray and light-gray, well-foliated quartz-feldspar gneiss (Xf) and hornblende-plagioclase gneiss and amphibolite (Xh), including amphibolite, in approximately equal amounts. Some areas in Squaw Pass 7.5-minute quadrangle are equivalent to the mixed layered gneiss unit (Xlg) of Evergreen quadrangle
1:100,000 sheet: Kellogg and others, 2008, USGS Geologic Investigations Series 3000 (21 crags). A contact line at that scale is about 100 m wide on the ground.
