The Sterling quadrangle lies across the junction of Sanpete and Sevier Valleys and at the point of closest approach of the Wasatch and Gunnison Plateaus. The geology of the Sterling quadrangle is complex stratigraphically, structurally, and by the abundance and variety of unconsolidated Quaternary deposits. The complexities result from the quadrangle's position on a part of the Sanpete-Sevier antiform that is elevated and exposed at the surface, and also because local diapirism of the Arapien Shale has interacted with climatic changes to multiply the type and number of Quaternary deposits.
