Book Geology Underfoot in Death Valley and Owens Valley
Book Geology Underfoot in Death Valley and Owens Valley Quote "Eastern California boasts the greatest dryland relief in the contiguous USA - between Mt Whitney and Death Valley - and that relief exposes spectacular geology. These thirty driving and walking tours each weave the tale of a geologica feature or relationship in this land of extremes. Some sketches ponder questions that puzzle geologists: how do stone slide across Racetrack playa? Others spotlight the earth-scultpturing role of volcanoes and earthquakes; lava columns at Devils Postpile and fault scarps that shape a golf course. Still others focus on less obvious but equally powerful processes; boulders shattered by salt crystals and rocks blasted by windblown sand." Unquote. Approx A5 size, contains 31 pages.
