While searching the web I found the following 
online papers about the Upheaval Dome, which 
can be downloaded as PDF files.

Origin. In: Geology of Utah's Parks and Monuments

Submitted to Journal of Geophysical Research 
- Planets, 1999. Seismic reflection study of 
Upheaval Dome, Canyonlands National Park, Utah.

There is data-filled web page at:

Geophysical Surveys of the Upheaval Dome Impact 
Structure, Canyonlands National Park, Utah
http://www.seismo.unr.edu/ftp/pub/louie/dome/

"The proposed seismic surveys of Upheaval Dome 
in Canyonlands National Park has two objectives: 
(1) establish or reject the concept of a salt 
diapir below the central depression by timing 
the arrivals of refracted waves passing between 
the depression and the regional depth of the top 
of the Paradox Formation; (2) obtain measurements 
of the change in thickness of the major 
sedimentary formations at different distances 
from the center of Upheaval Dome. To achieve 
these objectives a seismic reflection and 
refraction survey will be conducted."
