This deformation was part of a complexly deformed Eocene Sevier-Laramide hinterland that underwent east-west contraction and extension in different areas and ultimately gave way to widespread Oligocene extension in the eastern Great Basin. Such “mixed-mode” supracrustal Eocene tectonism may reflect local adjustments to maintain a state of regional gravitational equilibrium, or may record responses to changing plate convergence rates at the west edge of the continent.
