Description
From ancient Paleozoic seas to glacial ice sheets, learn how geology and geologic processes sculpted the landscape at the Lakeshore Nature Preserve. Accompany geologist Philip Fauble as he unlocks the grand story the rocks have to tell, from 2.3 billion year old boulders brought down from Canada on continental ice sheets to sand that was deposited on a tropical beach 500 million years ago. The earth has a grand story to tell if you know how to read it! Note: parking is limited at Raymer's Cove.
