Member Meet-Up: Geology of West Cliff Drive with Gavin Piccione and Jessica Gagliardi
Santa Cruz’s West Cliff Drive is a world famous place to take walk, but most who venture here don’t know about the millions of years that went to into its formation. Join the Santa Cruz Museum of Natural History alongside Gavin Piccione and Jessica Gagliardi, PhD candidates in Earth and Planetary Sciences at UC Santa Cruz, for a guided tour of the rock formations, tide pools, concretions, arches, and more that make up this iconic location. Accessibility and COVID protocol -Participants should be prepared to walk up to 3 miles on mostly paved terrain. There will be a portion where we will scamper down a rough dirt path to get to a wavecut platform with tide pools. -Wear good walking shoes — no flip flops! -Exact location details will shared upon registration. -Space is limited.
