Wooster Geologist in Southwestern Utah (April 2018)

St. George, Utah — I visited southwestern Utah for a week to prepare for an Independent Study expedition next month to study the Carmel Formation (Middle Jurassic). I wanted to update locality information I had collected in the 1990s (ancient times!), find different sections, and meet new people. It was much fun and very productive. The daily blog entries are linked below —

April 16: A Wooster Geologist returns to the Jurassic of southwestern Utah
April 17: Another geological scouting day in southwestern Utah
April 18: Another day in the shallow Jurassic seas of southwestern Utah
April 19: Delightful fossils in the Middle Jurassic Carmel Formation on my last field day

Next month we will have posts from the project!
