    Description
    Geology of the Sacramento River Canyon introduces the canyon's geologic history, resources and potential hazards during two evening sessions and a Saturday field trip. The field trip will afford opportunities for students to visit many of the major geologic features exposed in the canyon, from the imposing Castle Crags granite to one of the spectacular caverns in the McCloud Limestone.
