Geologic map of the Red Breaks quadrangle, Garfield County, Utah (M-117)
By: G. W. Weir and L. S. Beard
The Red Breaks quadrangle, south-central Garfield County, lies in the Circle Cliffs-Teasdale section of the Colorado Plateau physiographic province. A chief feature of the quadrangle is a large dissected mesa, Red Breaks, in the southwestern part of the quadrangle. Most of the area is an irregular, knob-studded tableland that near the Escalante River is intricately cut into small canyons and mesas. Total relief in the quadrangle is more than 1100 feet, but local relief is commonly only a few hundred feet.
