    Ultramafics of CA and OR

    In late August/early September, we spent two weeks in northern California and southeastern Oregon, looking at ultramafics in the Trinity Ophiolite (CA) and Josephine Peridotite (OR). This trip was part of a Stanford field class, GES 190: Advanced Field Methods, and the students blogged about their experience here.
