Geology Field Trips for 2021 Leader: Dr. Paul Myers
The spectacular and diverse geology of the Boquete region has been the object of popular caravan-style field excursions since 2017. In preparation for resumption of field trips in 2021. Leader Paul Myers is preparing a CONTACT LIST to notify people of upcoming geological activities and manage sign-ups.

These 3 to 8-hour field trips (See tentative list below) are free and require observance of COVID restrictions such as face masks, and 2 meter distancing. The shorter trips involve minimal easy walking, whereas the longer ones are generally more strenuous.
Once you are on the Contact List you will be eligible to sign up. You are reminded that last-minute cancellations are strongly discouraged. Once a field trip is "full" you may sign up as a "stand-by". We will need to recruit volunteer drivers. Children under the age of 10 are not eligible.
