Geologic Map of the Cedar City 7.5-Minute Quadrangle, Iron County, Utah (M-302DM) Liquefaction Studies near the towns of EscalanteBy: Tyler R Knudsen The Cedar City 7. 5 minute quadrangle is located within Iron County on the eastern margin of Cedar Valley and includes the western edge of the Markagunt Plateau. Exposed bedrock in the quadrangle ranges in age from the Triassic Timpoweap Member of the Moenkopi Formation (about 250 million years old) to Quaternary lava flows (about 1 million years old). Late Cretaceous and older rocks in the quadrangle were folded and faulted during
