We gather in front of the Geology building |
and hurry to assemble tents before sunset |
do you think this dark corner we keep us away from wild beasts? |
dinner in the dark |
fire building lessons |
roasting marshmallows |
glowing bark |
ghost stories, jokes and lots of laughter |
wild beasts lurk in the dark corners |
the quiet of morning |
a bit of leftover heat |
breakfast |
breaking camp |
proud of the way he carries his bananna |
the basics: Poconno, Huntley Mtn, and Catskill formations |
cross bedding basics |
view from the top |
which way is up? |

the top of Cliff's favorite falls |

and mud cracks |
