Outcrops of paleoescarpments. a Photograph and corresponding sketch showing an erosional surface (es), abruptly cutting through the Calcari di Rio di Nava (CRN), dipping to the right, overlain by whitish limestones referable to the Calcari di Val Tanarello (CVT) in the foreground, dipping to the left. Thin lines indicate bedding (Gias Gruppetti area). b Subhorizontal Calcari di Val Tanarello limestones lean with onlap relationships on an erosional surface (dotted line) cutting through the Calcari di Rio di Nava limestones (Cima della Fascia). c Dm-thick small patches of Calcari di Val Tanarello sediments draping an irregular erosional surface cutting through the Calcari di Rio di Nava limestones (Piaggia Bella area)
