GRC Annual Meeting & GEA Geothermal Energy Expo:

GRC Field Trip Views the Beautiful Scenery Around Las Vegas

A GRC Field Trip set off yesterday into the desert around Las Vegas to view some of the natural wonders of the area.

The Las Vegas Valley Geology Field Trip stopped at the Valley of Fire State Park, Muddy Mountain and the Great Unconformity at Frenchman Mountain.

The GRC Field Trip is a prelude to the GRC Annual Meeting & GEA Expo starting today at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.







At one stop the group were excited to see some petroglyphs from an archaic native American community.











The red rocks of the valley were the main attraction for most but some fashion conscious day-trippers had other ideas!
