UWEC Professor Kent Syverson will present a program about the geology we find along the trail at our May meeting on Monday, May 17, at 7 PM. The program, which is intended for a general audience, will be preceded at 6 PM by our regular chapter meeting.
Syverson is the author of the definitive publication on glacial geology of Chippewa County, and has led popular field trips to explain the glacial story to general audiences as well. He's an engaging speaker, and we're thrilled to have him for this presentation.
The program will be at the Chippewa Falls Public Library, 105 W Central St., Chippewa Falls. (Map)
Focusing on the Chippewa Moraine area, Syverson will explain some of the puzzling landscape that greets the hiker along the trails. He'll remind us anew what makes our part of the trail unique along the Ice Age Trail.
Be sure to bring your hiking friend along to this meeting.
