415. From the Crest of the Front Range to the Depths of the Denver Basin
|
| Primary Leader: Shari Kelley |
| Leader(s): Robert Raynolds |
| Field Trip Description: This one day trip will travel from the top of Mt. Evans to the center of the Denver Basin. The discussion will focus on exhumation of the Front Range, based on low temperture thermochronology, and associated sedimentation in the Denver Basin, based on detrital thermochronology and depositional patterns. We will explore the implications of these results for paleo reconstructions of past landscapes. |
| Field Trip will span: 1 day |
