Field Trips
Crescent Beach Field Trip, May 26th
We had a field trip to Salt Creek, Tongue Point and Crescent Beach on Memorial Day, Monday May 26th. The weather was great and we were able to walk over to crescent beach to look for fossils and then returned to Tongue Point to find limestone casts of kelp seaweed containing fossils and minerals. Along the tongue point pillow lavas there were tide pools with lots of interesting organisms. It was lovely with lots of photo opportunities on a clear day including natural formations of sea caves and sea arches. See below for some pictures.
