Explore the geology, paleontology and archaeology of Ghost Ranch through easy to moderate hikes to places that tell the stories of the rocks, the people and the fossilized life of the past.  Learn how these ‘ologies’ fit together bringing history to life as we set the stage with lectures and adventures out in the field visiting sites and important geologic areas.  Participants must be able to hike at 6,500ft in elevation on uneven terrain carrying a light pack for water and a sack lunch as at least two of our hikes will take us out in the wilderness until early afternoon.  This earth science-based hiking excursion will weave together the stories of time, taking us back to the period when the first dinosaurs roamed the land that is now Ghost Ranch..
