Rock Canyon Geology Field Trip


Last Saturday I had the opportunity to go on a field trip up to Rock Canyon in Provo. It was a beautiful morning and the perfect time to enjoy the changing colors on the trees. I have to admit that some of those rocks are pretty neat too!


One of the best things about my geology class is our most amazing professor, Dr. Nixon. He is truly one of the most kind and inspiring people that anyone could ever meet. His love for learning about this beautiful earth is such a good example to us all. He is able to connect with us "young people" and to teach in such a way that is clear and applicable. From Far Side Gallery comics and rock puns to "anti-sleeping students devices," He keeps class lively and interesting! Like Dr. Nixon says, "Interest precedes learning!"
