    Description
    This course accompanies ESCI 35 and represents laboratory and field activities associated with Lassen Volcanic National Park, inclusive of a three-day overnight field trip within and around the park. This course supports the goal of understanding the geologic and climatologic history and modern ecologic character of the park through site and outcrop exposures as they demonstrate volcanic processes, volcanic and geothermal features, past glaciation and glacial features, slide hazards, faulting, and typical seasonality experienced by the park as it drives ecology. Field exercises will be conducted at various stops. (CSU transferable)
