Silurian Geology of Kewaunee County: Guided Tour of Bruemmer County Park
About this Event
Join us for a geological exploration of the Niagara Cuesta - the eastern dip-slope associated with the Niagara Escarpment - just before its Silurian-aged dolostone plunges underneath the waves of Lake Michigan.
The tour will be led by our expert geologist, Dr. Donald Mikulic, who will share the geological history of this unique park. Hear about the geological processes which created these rocks and how glacial and erosional forces have manipulated the many riverine corridors that cut across the Cuesta to offer exposures of this material. Don will also share stories of how this rock was so very important to the area's historic lime and stone industry.
