Digital database for the geologic map along the southern Bartlett Springs fault zone and adjacent area between Cache Creek and Lake Berryessa, Northern Coast Ranges, California

October 5, 2023

This geologic map database is comprised of new geologic mapping, at a 1:24,000 scale, along the southern Bartlett Springs fault in the northern California Coast Ranges. The map covers an area of 258 square miles in Lake, Napa, Colusa, and Yolo counties, work was undertaken between 2016 and 2021, and supported by the USGS National Cooperative Geologic Map Program. This geodatabase contains the most up-to-date and highest resolution mapping in the region. Results and observations reported here help elucidate the geologic deformational history, as well as relationships between active older and active structures. Please consult the map pamphlet and description of map units for a detailed presentation and interpretation of data and discussion of results. The report and geodatabase contain two plates including the geologic map as well as a correlation of map units, four geologic cross sections, six microseismic cross sections, and a microseismicity fault map.
