Deep Time Travel

About 50 of us traveled back 500 million years to learn about the rock we so casually walk past on the Ice Cave Trail at Wildcat Mountain State Park. Chris and Laura Zahm shared their incredible depth of knowledge about the geology of the Driftless area in a compelling story. Weaving together the patterns of weathering and deposition of grains of sand with information about the realm of dinosaurs; water movement and its effects and putting the epoch of human habitation in perspective made for a great morning. Many thanks to Laura and Chris!
