Geology Field Trip: The Genesee River Gorge and Lower Falls
Advertisement
The gorge carved by the Genesee River allows us to see the rock layers under our feet like no other place in Rochester. During this field trip, students will together "read" the 450-million-year-old geologic story of our area from that rock record; identifying different rocks, analyzing rock structures and textures, and perhaps even finding some fossils! Walking this hidden Lower Falls access route will reveal the hidden history of our region - mountains, oceans, glaciers, and all.
