The Elephant Canyon Formation is the basal Permian geologic formation of the Cutler Group overlying an unconformity on the Pennsylvanian Honaker Trail Formation in the Paradox Basin of southern Utah.
The basal conglomerate is composed of moderately sorted cherts up to 3 cm in diameter.
It weathers to a medium brown and forms hackly, blocky ledges and intervening slopes.
