北加利福尼亚海岸山脉由至少七个构造地层地体组成。其中六个，皮克特峰，约拉波利，中央，耶格，海岸和国王山脉是方济各会组合的一部分。埃尔德克里克岩层是大峡谷序列的一部分。内华达造山运动期间，东部开始增生，并向西发展。然而，这并不是一个连续的过程，它似乎包括逆冲俯冲和走滑断裂的交替时期。最近的一次活动，即国王山脉的向东逆冲，被认为与门多西诺三联结的向北通道有关。
The northern California Coast Ranges consist of at least seven tectonostratigraphic terranes. Six of these, the Pickett Peak, Yolla Bolly, Central, Yager, Coastal, and King Range are part of the Franciscan assemblage. The Elder Creek terrane is part of the Great Valley sequence. Accretion began in the east during the Nevadan orogeny and proceeded westward. Rather than a continuous process, however, it appears to have involved alternating periods of underthrusting (subduction?) and strike-slip faulting. The latest event, the eastward-directed obduction of the King Range terrane, is believed to be related to the northward passage of the Mendocino triple junction.
