Beach and upper shoreface facies predominate. Inclined parallel laminae and bioturbated beds lie subparallel to the inclined set surfaces.
Parallel laminae represent the bar surface.
Paleocurrent data indicate that bar migration was largely directed obliquely onshore towards the southeast. The bar slipface deposits are considered to record the recovery of a nearshore bar immediately following storm conditions. Bar recovery involves reestablishment of a slipface and rapid onshore migration. The episodic nature of bar migration is indicated by the development of heavily bioturbated horizons. Despite the abundance of barred shorelines around the world at present, their deposits are not widely described from the rock record, suggesting that they are either not preserved or not recognized.
