p.41: The folds of the Säntis Nappe form a depression extending east across the Rhine Valley, and culminate in the Vorarlberg region where the fold core comprises Jurassic strata visible in the Kanisfluh (Pfiffner et al. 2010). In Vorarlberg the Säntis Nappe is underlain by the Hohenems Nappe (Wissling 1985), a nappe that crops out solely around Hohenems, in the Rhine Valley, and dips southward below the Säntis Nappe, extending in the subsurface as far as Liechtenstein (Zerlauth et al. 2014).
