Mexican Hat Utah!
Mexican Hat Syncline. As you can see from the photo, the layers of rock are jutting in an upward direction, this makes it a syncline. It is created by some violent force that has forced the land upwards, and thus has created the upward V of this land. Mexican Hat also has an anticline, which makes the land go in a downward manner. (for evey action there is an equal and opposite reaction) hum.... I don't have a photo for this but if someone out there does, please.. I would be grateful.

Many thanks to John Crossley for the use of this photo. Please visit him!
