Figure 25-True-scale reconstruction (in sequence [animation]) of cross section in Figure 24. Perched detachment (center) restores as a sliding surface above a basinward-thinning wedge that collapsed onto the developing salt weld above Eocene and older strata. Salt is shown in black. Reconstruction is by the MESH method. See Figure 2 for location.
