Description

Written in Stone, a full-day field program for students at the Junior High School level, examines the geologic landforms between Calgary and Peter Lougheed Provincial Park. The program consists of a road log and four stops. The road log contains information on the landforms visible from the highway and poses questions for discussion; the four stops represent four chapters in the geology of the Rocky Mountains - deposition, rock forming, mountain building and erosion. During each stop, students participate in an activity which demonstrates the geologic processes.
