Professor Dr. Doug Gouzie lead the Geology, Speleology (GLG 350) class on a field trip to the Onondaga Cave State Park during the first week of the semester.
Students learned about limestone – dolomite cave formation, stalagmites, stalactites, and flow stone formations in the cave.
Students also viewed a unique feature, a shield formation.
The shield formation shows in the photo gallery as a roundish, almost white looking area on the cave wall.
Oh, and a salamander for the biology enthusiasts.
Thank you to James McDaniel, Master of Science candidate, Geospatial Science/Geology. James provided all of the photos in the gallery.
