Chuckanut Formation
text:
The Chuckanut Formation in northwestern Washington, its extension in southwestern British Columbia, and various related formations in central Washington are fluvial sedimentary formations of Eocene age, deposited from about 54 million years ago to around 34 million years ago. The nature of the deposits and included plant fossils indicate a low-lying coastal plain with a subtropical climate; the nature of the sediments indicates metamorphic sources in northeastern Washington.
