E. Rodriguez G-Camp Experience: My Day at Ouray
http://erod-g-camp2008.blogspot.com/2008/07/my-day-at-ouray.html
E Rodriguez G-Camp Experience. Tuesday, July 22, 2008. My Day at Ouray. I had most of Monday for myself. I ate a good breakfast and then basically just bummed around a bit. I worked on some picture captions and updated the previous post a little more. It wasn't really frightening on the 4X4 trip. It was more unnerving :-). At five, Rick showed us a few slides to help us comprehend a little more about systems and how they relate to what is around us and specifically for geology. Fascinating stuff! View my...

Christy's Geology Adventure: An Unexpected Detour
http://christy-geoadventure.blogspot.com/2008/07/unexpected-detour.html
Friday, July 18, 2008. Only small dunes remain to protect what is left of the Texas coastline in this area. Dams have been built further up the rivers that once brought sediments to the coastal areas of Texas, causing a loss of materials to protect and build the beaches. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Yeah, I'm always this happy! Baytown, Texas, United States. View my complete profile. The top of Enchanted Rock. Please tell me this is REALLY the top! Me in Carlsbad Cavern. What a Smelly Mess.

E. Rodriguez G-Camp Experience: Visit to Black Canyon
http://erod-g-camp2008.blogspot.com/2008/07/visit-to-black-canyon.html
E Rodriguez G-Camp Experience. Wednesday, July 23, 2008. Visit to Black Canyon. After Black Canyon, we headed to Lake City. We stopped along the road to discuss several landslides that had occurred in the region. We also stopped to take pictures of the hoodoos and retrieved some rock samples. Several of us found some peacock ore, welded tuff, gneiss, and sedimentary rock. Closer to Lake City, Rick explained the calderas found in this region. Posted by E. Rodriguez.

E. Rodriguez G-Camp Experience: 4X4 Tour of the Red Mountains
http://erod-g-camp2008.blogspot.com/2008/07/4x4-tour-of-red-mountains.html
E Rodriguez G-Camp Experience. Sunday, July 20, 2008. 4X4 Tour of the Red Mountains. After a frightening experience (at least for me ;-) of hanging out of an open jeep to go up the side of a mountain, we reached a couple of summits and took some pictures. We took a group picture at our last stop, Lake Como. Location of Lake Como using Google Earth, click on it and you can see where it is and the dark blue dots indicate part of our path. I took quite a few pictures as we went up. The views were AWESOME.

E Rodriguez G-Camp Experience. Sunday, July 27, 2008. Slumgullian Earthflow and Mine. We went to visit the earthflow in the morning. Ron Kaiser, from the Texas A&M Water Management Hydrological Science program, was our "tour guide" for Lake City. He took us by Lake San Cristobal and explained the importance of the water to Lake City. Posted by E. Rodriguez. Efren I finally got time to sit down and read your blog. As you say awesome!

E. Rodriguez G-Camp Experience: White Sands and Valley of Fires
http://erod-g-camp2008.blogspot.com/2008/07/white-sands-and-valley-of-fires.html
E Rodriguez G-Camp Experience. Friday, July 18, 2008. White Sands and Valley of Fires. On our way to the Valley of Fires, we started seeing some evidence of the 1,000 year or so old volcanic lava flow. Lots of black sections in the landscape due to the pahoehoe lava flow. We were to walk through the Malpais nature trail but a storm hit us, carrying hail even. The sound you hear is the hail striking the bus. But we got to see some of the landscape and collected a few samples of lava rock :-). Dr Mathewson...

E. Rodriguez G-Camp Experience: Trip through and around the San Juan Mountains
http://erod-g-camp2008.blogspot.com/2008/07/trip-through-and-around-san-juan.html
E Rodriguez G-Camp Experience. Saturday, July 19, 2008. Trip through and around the San Juan Mountains. We traveled from Albuquerque, NM to Ouray, CO. Along the way, we encountered quite a few different morphologies. Rick made quite a few stops so we could see and experience these different structures. We encountered a majority of limestones, sandstones and shales. We saw a lot of examples of physical weathering especially some create examples of land clearing through avalanches.

Christy's Geology Adventure: July 2008

Thursday, July 24, 2008. A Sea in the Middle of New Mexico? And I Thought all Caverns were the Same. After seeing Longhorn Caverns, I just assumed all caverns would be the same and Carlsbad would be the same. Boy was I wrong! Making a Connection to a Confusing Lecture. Saturday, July 19, 2008. What a Smelly Mess. Friday, July 18, 2008. Two Nights of Luxury. Even with constant maintenance. Of the seawall, there are still many problems that occur due to erosion. The beaches that aren't protected are sl...
