Geologic map of the Tenmile Flat quadrangle, Garfield County, Utah (M-118)

By: G. W. Weir and L. S. Beard

The Tenmile Flat quadrangle, south-central Garfield County, lies in the Kaiparowits Plateau-Teasdale anticline section of the Colorado Plateau physiographic province. Mesas in the southwest corner of the quadrangle are spurs from the Kaiparowits Plateau. Extensive flats lie in the northwestern, northeastern, and southwestern parts of the quadrangle. Most of the quadrangle, however, is part of a gently arched rock tableland, intricately dissected by many gullies and small canyons. Total relief in the quadrangle is about 1350 feet, but local relief is commonly less than 100 feet except near the mesas in the southwest corner of the map and along Harris Wash in the southeast corner.
