This is the End

This geological field trip exposed you to a variety of geologic finds. Not only is the trip enjoyable in terms of the amazing sites but one to be learned from. By now you should understand a little more about Pikes Peak, and what frost wedging is all about. You can now impress your friends while visiting the Garden of the Gods by explaining the phenomenon that caused the vertical sediment layers. You will also have a good idea how erosion presented places like Balanced Rock. Overall it is a trip well worth the time necessary to take it. As the photos only begin to uncover the beauty this area has to offer, I implore you to take the time to adventure to the top of Pikes Peak and on into the Garden of the Gods.
