Description
The Colfax Syncline plunges southward and separates the Downs Anticline on the west from the Tuscola Anticline and Osman Monocline on the east. The position of its sinuous axis varies, depending on which contouring horizon is selected. The Colfax Syncline, as depicted on plate 1, is based on Bristol and Buschbach's (1973) map of the top of the Galena Group.
