A bedrock narrow in Wet Beaver Creek, a tributary of the Verde River of central Arizona, is referred to as 'The Crack". Bedrock is cross bedded, reddish sandstone of the Pennsylvanian to Lower Permian Supai Group. Boulders littering the channel floor are basalts from the nearby Mormon Mountain volcanic field.
