This five-week, 6-credit, capstone field course welcomes applications from students at other universities. Students study a broad range of rock types in various structural and geomorphological settings in Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and Wyoming. To cover this amount of ground, the course involves camping (all in beautiful settings); meals are prepared by a camp cook. The various exercises are designed to provide students with an understanding of the western North American Cordillera as an integrated tectonic system.
