INTRODUCTION

This year's Devils Hole Workshop was once again in Death Valley (my preferred venue), this year it was sponsored by Inyo County, California and hosted by the National Park Service.

I gave a presentation about the previous 5 years' field trips (click to download a very large PDF file).

Five destinations were visited on this 2009 Death Valley trip (these are links, click-away!):

1.     We took a walk on a salt flat just for fun.

2.     We took a drive through Titus Canyon just for fun, but I was the only one having any fun.

3.     We visited Ubehebe Crater, a 2,000 year old volcano, the most recent one in the region!

4.     Then we visited Scotties' Castle.

5.     The Devils Hole Workshop Field Trip took us out of Death Valley into Amargosa Valley to see some recently mapped faults.
