Adrian’s center stands about 4,040 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 3,960 ft to 4,120 ft, a difference of 160 ft: gently rolling country.
The section below crosses 3 rock units mapped at the surface.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 34×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.
Sand. Age: Pleistocene, less than 2.6 million years old. About 13 mi of the line.
Sand. Age: Late Miocene to Pliocene, 2.6 to 12 million years old. About 11 mi of the line.
Conglomerate-sandstone. Age: Middle Triassic to Late Triassic, 208 to 247 million years old. About 0.4 mi of the line.
From the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation (Horton and others, 2017), the states’ geologic maps joined at a common scale.
