Dear teachers,
I am not sure about the grammatical structure of this excerpt:
"The Snake River Plain stretches from Oregon across northern Nevada and southern Idaho into Wyoming. Its geologic history is a complicated tale of normal fractures in the Earth's crust on its western edge to a more complex plot of basalt lava flows perhaps stemming from a hot plume of magma now beneath Yellowstone National Park".
I have not well understood the second sentence: does it mean that "its geologic history is a tale of [...] involving a plot of [...]"?
Thank you in advance,
G.
