Maps of the Alpstein area. Inset Helvetic nappes distribution (green) in Switzerland with the location of the study area. a Geological map of the study area with a simplified stratigraphy. b Simplified structural map of the study area. The cross-sections used in the model building process are shown in both a and b and labeled in (b). Arrows appearing with the anticline traces refer to the dip direction of the fold axial planes. Capital letters (e.g., A, B, C) refer to thrusts; capital “A”s followed by a roman number (e.g., AI, AIV, etc.) refer to anticline traces. NP North Penninic nappe; UH Ultrahelvetic nappe. Coordinates are given in the Swiss coordinate system CH1903
