Field Trip to Dinosaur National Monument

Professors Clay Kelly and Basil Tikoff (UW-Madison, Department of Geology and Geophysics) led a field trip to Dinosaur National Monument (UT, CO) in the summer of 2007.

The trip lasted approximately 10 days and included stops at numerous points of geologic interest in the states of Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming enroute to and from Dinosaur National Monument (DNM).  This trip was a culmination of spring-semester class (Geology & Paleontology of DNM) that covered a wide variety of geological disciplines including: (1) regional tectonic history, (2) structural geology, (3) stratigraphy and sedimentology, and (4) invertebrate and vertebrate paleontology.
