Westward Ho!

It’s just a day after commencement and I have landed in Arizona to await the arrival of 26 students enrolled in Geology 310: Regional Field Geology.  The semester may be over, but the fun is not. Over the next three weeks we will traipse across the landscape of northern Arizona and Utah.  We’ll study the geology of the Colorado Plateau from the bottom of the Grand Canyon to the top of the La Sal Mountains.  This is the place where geologists go to see geology, well exposed and glorious.  As access to the web permits, I’ll post status reports of our adventure.
