Don Barrett (aka DBs… club has replied to ClintAs to why the volcanics look so flat--they probably were deposited on a reasonably flat surface that hasn't been tilted subsequently. Since they're pretty durable rocks, if there were originally more units (sediments, say) deposited atop them, those units could have eroded away more easily to leave the hard lava units sticking up as a ridge. The sediments under the lava are protected from erosion (at least fast erosion) by the lava cap. Iow, this ridge looks to me to be a product both of faulting and differential erosion.
OK, sorry for the long-windedness--
