Yes Good story, but least Geology. From the title I was expecting Geology. All read here is a submerged hill!. Sorry. I see that Alcatraz is a surface remnant of an acretionary prism, accumulated due to the subduction of Faralon oceanic plate below North American continent, not sure on time-scale.
I was there last week, on a tourist trip to Alcatraz, and was very curious on Geology, on the road cut while going up. I took a picture. I am just curious on finding the geology, like I do in any other tourist spot that I go to.
The beds are very steeply dipping (Probably SW~70 degrees, no measurement, just a hunch. These are very coarse grained sandstones (probably Feldspathic Quartites. (seems right in this story). Certainly these are turbidites and well bedded and laminated, alternating with 1-2ft shales, rhythemically at regular intervals! These are slope deposits of developoing acretionary prism. I will post some more when I find.
