Geology of New Mexico Landscapes - NEW DATE!

What caused New Mexico to have so much beautiful and fascinating scenery? This course is a survey of places where geology tells a story of how Earth’s natural processes have changed landscapes over time. From red rock canyons to widespread volcanoes, from granite mountains to ancient seaways, from black lava flows to White Sands, we have an abundance of geologic stories nearby. No prior background needed — just curiosity.
