Undivided Upper Cretaceous deposits in the Kaiparowits Plateau, southern Utah (kaibkd*g)
Description
This is a polygon coverage and shapefile that contains
undivided Upper Cretaceous rocks that include (in descending
order) the Smoky Hollow and Tibbet Canyon Mbs. of the
Straight Cliffs Fm., and the Tropic Shale and Dakota Fm.
This coverage shows where these rocks are exposed along
the outcrop and are buried in the subsurface in the
Kaiparowits Plateau study area, southern Utah. The base
of the Dakota Fm. was used to define the Kaiparowits Plateau
for areas east of 112 degrees of longitude. The northern
boundary is delineated by the Paunsaugunt fault and volcanic
rocks of Tertiary age.
