This is a new outcrop of Cincinnatian rocks in a roadcut just west of Maysville, Kentucky. Near the top center is Matt Howard for scale. Matt's section of the Grant Lake Formation starts where he is standing. Mike Vanden Berg's hardground is nearly the same level. Ball-and-pillow structures studied by Bryn Clark are visible in the Fairview Formation near the bottom of the outcrop. The diagonal structure on the right side of the outcrop is a rare thrust fault in the Cincinnatian section.
