This roadcut is one of several exposed along the newly constructed West Virginia Route 55, also known as Corridor H. This location is about 4 miles west of Baker WV and features a crisp anticlinal fold in red sandstone, siltstone and shale. These folded sedimentary strata are likely from the Devonian Greenland Gap Group ( formerly the Chemung Formation) containing the Foreknobs and Scheer Formations.
