Field Trip
The field trip will take place on Saturday October 14th. It will follow a transect west to east across the width of the Shuswap metamorphic complex. The field trip will focus on the transition from lesser deformed, lower grade metamorphic rocks of the superstructure and higher grade, partially melted and penetratively-deformed rocks of the infrastructure for the southern Canadian Cordillera.
