You're looking at a dissected tableland, the relatively flat upper surfaces are andan old flattened (by erosion and/or sediment deposition) ground surface. Given that the valleys cutting through areappear to be quite steep sided and flat bottomed, I would guess that the primary erosive force is late stage glacial action towards the end of the last ice age. The original plateau was probably flattened out by the action of earlier ice sheets at a time closer to the last glacial maximum.
