Follow My Journey!

I am off on a great adventure. I am the Outreach Educator on a National Science Funded project to date the retreat of the Laurentide ice sheet.  I will be flying to Calgary and then heading north with a crew of geologists from Oregon State University of University of Edmonton.  This project is to directly date the separation of the Cordileran and Laurentide ice sheets during the last deglaciation.  Results will determine the timing of an ice-free corridor that would allow human and faunal migrations between Beringia and North America.  For now I need to get back to packing gear.  More will be coming as we travel north along the front range of the Canadian Rockies in Alberta and British Columbia.
