The size of the group will be ~20 students, and thus a student/instructor ration of 6:1 will be maintained throughout the course. The instructors (Jay Quade and Peter DeCelles) have extensive research and teaching experience in the geology of western North America and with the regional geology of Utah and Nevada in particular. The field school departs from and returns to Tucson in university vehicles. Travel will be entirely in university vehicles; no personal vehicles are allowed. We will be camping out the entire time, sometimes at designated U.S. Forest Service sites, other times on public land.
