Geology of the Blue Ridge Field Class
with Anton DuMars
Friday, June 27  |  12 - 4 pm
BRN - Geology Core 
On this Field Experience, we will observe and interpret evidence of Appalachian mountain-building events. Participants can put their hands on a 380+/- million-year-old pluton and observe their post-uplift weathering, jointing, and exfoliation. In addition, participants observe and interpret river processes, transport, and depositional environments of sediments derived from up-gradient sources. The experience includes on-site geologic map reading and interpretation.
This off-site program has stops in the Pisgah Forest near Brevard NC along The Pisgah Highway including Daniel Ridge and the Davidson River.
This program will take place outside and will follow easy to moderate trails. Dress for the weather and prepare to be outside for the entire program time.
Anton DuMars, 
a resident of Black Mountain, NC, is an adjunct professor at the College of Charleston. His geological interests include fluvial, deltaic, and coastal processes. Ideally, he’s spending time on a hiking trail or aboard his sailboat.
