MAP UNIT DESCRIPTIONS for the Lost Creek drainage, Lost Creek Dam, Peck Canyon, and Francis Canyon 7.5' quadrangles

(all Quaternary units are not present nor are all bedrock units exposed in each quadrangle)

QUATERNARY Qa3 Alluvium, undivided (Quaternary) - Sand, silt, clay, and gravel in stream and alluvial-fan

deposits; composition depends on source area; located about80 to 100 feet (12-30 m) above drainages in Coyote and Toone Canyons in Lost Creek Dam quadrangle; may be same age as Qat3 and Qaf3; 0 to 20 feet (0-6 m) thick.

Qao High-level alluvium (Pleistocene) - Sand, silt, clay, and gravel above adjacent stream terraces; located about 100 to 120 feet (30-36 m) above Saleratus Creek in Francis Canyon quadrangle as well as above Lost Creek prior to damming, now located next to Lost Creek Reservoir; in Lost Creek Dam quadrangle likely older than Qa3, Qat3, and Qaf3, and younger than Qat4 and Qaf4; age in the Francis Canyon quadrangle uncertain because it's in a different drainage system; thickness 0 to 20 feet (0-6 m).

Qal Stream and floodplain alluvium (Holocene) -- Sand, silt, clay, and gravel in channels and floodplains; locally includes fan alluvium in canyons; composition depends on source area; 0 to 20 feet (0-6 m) thick.

Qat2, Qaty, Qat3, Qat4 Stream-terrace alluvium (Quaternary) -- Sand, silt, clay, and gravel in terraces above floodplains; terraces just above floodplains (Qat2) are located downstream from Lost Creek Dam and near the mouth of Francis Canyon; slightly higher terraces (Qaty) are about 40 feet (12 m) above Toone Canyon drainage in Lost Creek Dam quadrangle, and 20 to 40 feet (3-12 m) above Saleratus Creek in Francis Canyon quadrangle, except where down-dropped by normal faults; higher terraces (Qat3) are present about 80 feet (25 m) above Lost Creek south of the dam, likely about 80 feet (25 m) above pre-dam drainage near Lost Creek Reservoir, and 40 to 80 feet (12-25 m) above Lost Creek in Peck Canyon quadrangle; Qat4 is 160 feet (50 m) above drainage in Hell Canyon in Lost Creek Dam quadrangle, but might correlate with Qa5 (> 160 feet above drainage) near Henefer; 0 to 20 feet (0-6 m) thick.

Qaf, Qafy, Qafl, Qaf2, Qaf3, Qaf4, Qaf5 Alluvial-fan deposits (Quaternary) -- Mostly sand, silt, and gravel that is poorly stratified and poorly sorted; deposited mainly by debris flows in drainages and at drainage mouths; generally less than 40 feet (12 m) thick; where possible younger deposits (suffix y) are separated; number suffixes (1-5), used in Guildersleeve Canyon, Lost Creek Dam quadrangle, indicate relative age (1 is youngest); Qaf2 is incised by present drainage; Qaf3 is more than 80 feet (25 m) above present drainage and likely the same age as Qat3; Qaf4 is 160 feet (50 m) above present drainage; generally less than 40 feet (12 m) thick.

Qap Pediment-mantle deposits (Pleistocene) -- Mapped only in Lost Creek Dam quadrangle, overlapping and uncut by Toone Canyon normal fault, and south of the mouth of Toone Canyon; surfaces appear to be at least 40 feet (12 m) above adjacent drainages and developed on older mass movement deposits.

Qac Alluvium and colluvium (Quaternary) -- Includes stream and fan alluvium, colluvium, and, locally, mass-movement deposits; 0 to 20 feet (0-6 m) thick.

Qc Colluvium (Quaternary) -- Includes slopewash and soil creep; composition depends on local bedrock; generally less than 20 feet (6 m) thick.

Qm Mass-movement deposits, undivided (Quaternary) -- Includes slides, slumps, and flows, as well as colluvium and talus; mapped on steep slopes where several mass-movement processes may contribute to deposit; composition depends on local sources; 0 to 40 feet (12 m) thick.

Qmc Mass-movement and colluvial deposits, undivided (Quaternary) -- Includes landslide, slump, slopewash, and soil creep; mapped in areas of subdued morphology where separate mapping of mass movement and colluvial deposits is not possible; composition depends on local sources; 0 to 40 feet (12 m) thick.

Qms, Qmsy, Qmso Slides and slumps (Quaternary) -- Poorly sorted clay- to boulder-sized material derived from steep local source terrain; generally characterized by hummocky topography, head and internal scarps, and chaotic bedding in displaced bedrock; locally includes flow deposits; morphology becomes subdued with age; where possible divided into younger and older (Pleistocene) deposits (suffixes y and 0, respectively); thicknesses highly variable.

Qf Artificial fill (Recent) -- Mapped only at Lost Creek Dam.

TERTIARY Tw Wasatch Formation (Eocene and uppermost Paleocene) -- Typically red sandstone,

siltstone, mudstone, and conglomerate with minor gray limestone and marlstone locally; lighter shades of red, yellow/tan, and light gray more common in uppermost part; total thickness up to 4,500 feet (1,370 m) south of Henefer; thickness varies locally due to considerable relief on basal erosional surface in all three quadrangles.

Twc Basal conglomerate of Wasatch Formation -- Red-orange- and tan-weathering, cobble conglomerate; mainly comprised of Proterozoic and Cambrian quartzite clasts (DeCelles, 1994); forms prominent cliffs along the western tributaries of Lost Creek in Lost Creek Dam quadrangle and to south near Devils Slide; 0 to 400 feet (120 m) thick.
