This situation arises in part from variations in the depth of erosion which has intersected the overthrust complex at different zones in different areas.

The Lewis Overthrust pushed eastward and over younger aged rocks, creating, among others, the Lewis Range.

The Himalayas, the Alps, and the Appalachians are prominent examples of compressional orogenies with numerous overthrust faults.

The Lewis Overthrust started during the formation of the Rocky Mountains 170 million years ago as a result of colliding tectonic plates.
