Idaho batholith
The Idaho batholith is a massive granitic intrusive rock complex in central Idaho that formed during Late Cretaceous magmatism and is one of the largest batholiths in North America.
-
D.
Cascadian orogeny
The Cascadian orogeny is the long-lasting mountain-building episode responsible for forming the Cascade Range through subduction-related tectonic activity along western North America.
