Image from the Harvard Art Museum, item 2.2002.107. Photograph taken by Samuel Bourne (1834-1912) of Contorted Strata at Losar in 1967.
It'd be awesome to find this uplifted strata and take a gigapan pic to compare with Sam's image. I'm not sure how 'contorted' the strata is, I suspect the appearence of much of the folding is actually due to erosion and faulting.
