Abstract

Quaternary geology of the Safford Basin, Graham County, Arizona, was mapped in three 7 1/2' minute quadrangles: Artesia, Safford and Thatcher. The geologic mapping is original but informed by previous works in the Gila River Valley. Holocene geomorphic boundaries of the Gila River were based on work by Klawon et al. (2004). Bedrock geology was derived from Thorman and Naruk (1987).
