We all know the Pacific Northwest hosts innumerable places to see incredible geology, but many of those places – even some right next to each other – can seem completely unrelated. How do they all fit together?

On May 24, Marli Miller will present a wandering photo-tour of Pacific Northwest geology that highlights field trip localities and brings them together to tell the region's geologic story. She got the inspiration for this talk while researching the many disparate localities for her latest book “Oregon Rocks! A Guide to 60 Amazing Geologic Sites,” published in April, 2021 with Mountain Press in Missoula.

Marli has authored and co-authored several books on the geology of Oregon and Washington, including Roadside Geology of Oregon, Roadside Geology of Washington, Oregon Rocks! A Guide to 60 Amazing Geologic Sites, and Colorado Rocks! A Guide to Geology Sites in the Centennial State.
