Description
The Pitcher Lake Fault is a small fault that lies between the overlapping ends of the Inman East Fault and New Harmony Fault Zone. It extends into Indiana and is approximately 2.5 miles (4 km) long. It strikes N30°E and dips 62° to 80°NW, as determined from the logs of wellbores that intersect the fault. The maximum downthrow is about 50 feet (15 m) to the northwest.
