Chemeketa Community College GEO 144 Field Trip: Silver Falls Web Site
We will meet on campus at 8 AM on 5/10/15 to get the handout (linked below). I will provide a handout of the assignment. Feel free to look at the background material prior to the field trip. We will spend about 6 hours at the park, maybe a little longer. After we are done, everyone is free to travel as they so please from the park. There are lots of trails, so this might be a great place to spend the rest of the day!
