Mount Oread Frosts Mother Earth's Cake
Few KU students realize that they are living on a layercake baked better than mother used to make.
Geologically speaking, Mount Oread is an erosional remnant composed of layered rocks hundreds of feet deep. Natural forces have arranged the slightly wrinkled layers of the Kansas structural cake.
MORE THAN 500 million years have passed since the oldest sediments were deposited on the granite rock of the Kansas "basement." Piled up to 10,000 feet above a granite base are several hundred layers of limestones, shales, clays, and sandstones.
Oread limestone, one of the layers, was quarried from the slopes of KU when Lawrence was settled in the 1850's. Most of the older buildings on the campus—Marvin, Flint, Haworth, Robinson Gymnasium, Bailey, old Fraser, part of Dyche and Danforth Chapel—were constructed of Oread limestone.
AT ONE TIME, the rock layers connected Mount Oread and Blue Mound, a landmark of comparable height and rock strata, several miles to the southeast.
The "icing" spread over much of the Kansas cake consists of unconsolidated deposits of sands, gravels, silts, and clays left by glacial ice, rivers, and winds.
