Abstract

During recent years geologic investigations have been made in various parts of northern Utah and southern Idaho. In the Cache Valley area. the Bear River Range which bounds the east side of the valley has been studied and mapped. On the west side of the valley, the Wellsville Mountain and the southern part of Malad Range have also been studied. Still, little is known about the east-central part of the Malad Range. The study of this area will give additional information to the over-all picture of the geology of the region. The purpose of this thesis is threefold. The first purpose is to make a reconnaissance geologic map of the area; the second is to interpret the local structure in terms of the regional structure; and finally, the third purpose is to correlate the local stratigraphy to that of the region.
