The San Rafael Swell is a large geologic feature located in south-central Utah, United States about 16 miles (26 km) west of Green River. The San Rafael Swell, measuring approximately 75 by 40 miles (121 by 64 km), consists of a giant dome-shaped anticline of sandstone, shale, and limestone that was pushed up during the Paleocene Laramide Orogeny 60–40 million years ago. Since that time, infrequent but powerful flash floods have eroded the sedimentary rocks into numerous valleys, canyons, gorges, mesas, buttes, and badlands. The swell is part of the Colorado Plateau physiographic region.

  • San Rafael Swell — велика геологічна структура, розташована в південно-центральній частині штату Юта, Сполучені Штати, приблизно в 16 милях (26 км) на захід від Грін-Рівер. Вихлина Сан-Рафаель розміром приблизно 75 на 40 миль (121 на 64 км) складається з гігантської куполоподібної антикліналі з пісковику, глинистих сланців і вапняку, яка була піднята під час палеоценового ларамідного орогенезу 60–40 мільйонів років тому. З того часу нечасті, але потужні раптові повені розмивали осадові породи в численні долини, каньйони, ущелини, височини, гори та безплодні землі. (uk)
