Field Trip

Almost a month ago I got to go to Kennecott Copper Mine with the geology department! It was awesome. We rode this little school bus all the way to the bottom of the mine. They let us use our rock hammers and take our own samples. Pretty much one of my most favorite field trips.Trick-or-Treating for a geologist but that isn't a costume, its real. The bus just made me laugh.

-Waterfall Canyon-

Over fall break My dad and I hiked Waterfall Canyon with the Halls. It was a perfect day for hiking. I really enjoyed the hike and had fun taking pictures. I also got some sweet geology pictures and rocks but don't worry I won't post them. Michelle almost accidentally touched a rattle snake. Since that is her biggest fear I was proud to be there and share the experience of her defeating her fears.
