IAP
The bulk of the course takes place during IAP term in January.
There, a month-long intensive field session is taught in the
southwestern desert. The focus changes from year to year with
the choice of field areas. Students are introduced to geological
and geomorphological mapping techniques in a wide variety of
bedrock and surficial environments using both traditional (topographic
and photographic base maps, eg.) and modern, digital data collection
techniques.
