Description

Summer field camp is a six credit hour (6SCH) camp and will again be offered in two formats in 2026: (1) Traditional, in-person bedrock mapping course in the Bighorn Basin of Wyoming and Montana, and (2) Virtual Minecraft gamified format serving student accessibility needs (travel, health, etc.) In-person camp will be held May 31 to June 24, 2026. Virtual camp dates TBA as needed. We welcome applications from WSU and guest students from other colleges and universities. The camp is underwritten by the Woolsey Family Fund for Geology Field Camp, which translates to a camp fee scholarship (~$2000) for each participating traditional, in-person student.
