Summary

English: This is a larger, undithered, grayscale version of the USGS map found at http://pubs.usgs.gov/publications/text/slabs.html I grabbed it from a PDF version published in a National Park Service booklet, http://www2.nature.nps.gov/geology/usgsnps/pltec/platesSH.pdf found at http://www2.nature.nps.gov/geology/usgsnps/misc/pdfdocs.html and converted it to PNG.

Please don't "optimize" this image by reducing colors or dimensions. It is intentionally a large file to ease making derivatives. Thanks.
