2004 RESULTS: FIELD METHODS IN NEOTECTONICS AND PALEOSEISMOLOGY (June 7-19, 2004)

Once again in June 2004, a mixture of university graduate students, government geologists, and consultants attended the 4th annual offering of the course Field Methods in Neotectonics and Paleoseismology. Here are a few glimpses of our activities. All photos courtesy of David Noe (at upper right in photo below), Colorado Geological Survey.

El Gordo takes a piece of Chef Shawn’s (at center) cherry cheesecake, after valiantly trying to resist in order to preserve his girlish figure. All the other puercos at the table had already finished their pieces.

 

Alpenglow shines on Kit Carson Peak, showing how the mountain range got the name Sangre de Cristo. Full moon rises below the Peak.
