SUMMARY:Geology - Full
DESCRIPTION:Sorry\, this program is FULL. Please email mail@gsmit.org to be added to the waitlist.\n\nNovember 7-9 | $529 | Register Now\n\nExplore the hidden backbone of the mountains while immersing yourself in this overlooked — yet vital— aspect of Smokies’ natural history. In this course\, you’ll use field geology techniques to investigate both popular and lesser-known locales in the park\, examine sedimentary and metamorphic outcrops\, and discuss geologic structures like folds and faults. The workshop will conclude by compiling our collective observations to illustrate the geologic history of the Smokies. \nThroughout the weekend workshop\, we will engage other branches of natural and cultural history\, focusing on geology’s influence on the region’s biodiversity. Hands-on explorations will include a two-mile roundtrip hike to a waterfall and several short (< 1/4 mile)\, rugged\, off-trail hikes involving rocky\, uneven terrain. \n  \nRegistration includes instruction\, food\, and lodging in our dorm inside Great Smoky Mountains National Park.  \nThis course is an elective in Tremont’s Southern Appalachian Naturalist Certification Program\, which consists of eight core courses. You have the option to enroll in individual courses or complete all eight to earn certification awarded by the University of Tennessee. \nAlready Registered? Check out the welcome letter for required readings\, a tentative itinerary\, and other essential details for your stay. \n\nCover photo by Stephanie Sweeney.
