The 4th day the did have some burn at the start, but mostly was a day of lakes and explorations. I stopped by one of the Forest's designated special places (for ) even!

This formation (East Lady Evelyn Conservation Reserve) is near my hometown and quite amazing to visit - in particular to paddle a around. This geology is one of the reasons we were taught about and their retreat during school. Features like eskers, kettles, moraines, and kames were all familiar to those in the area.

Rock on the beach at Barnum Point, Camano Island, WA. Conglomerate with subrounded cherty clasts in a dark matrix. Any sedimentary petrologists? Likely weathered out of till that caps the bluffs or a dropstone from floating ice on marine water incursion during the Everson interstade. Source rock provenance not known. Ref. Geologic map of the Juniper Beach 7.5-minute quadrangle, WDGER Geologic Map GM70.

Rock on the beach at Barnum Point, Camano Island, WA. Looks like a granodiorite peppered with xenoliths. Igneous petrologists chime in. Likely weathered out of the till that caps the bluffs or a dropstone from floating ice on marine water incursion during the Everson interstade. Source rock provenance not known. Ref. Geologic map of the Juniper Beach 7.5-minute quadrangle, WDGER Geologic Map GM70.

Atlantic white cedar , , , , USA
(Juniper family, Chamaecyparis thyoides) grows in low areas on the US east coast. This swamp is probably in a kettle left by the , not interdune. These aren’t climax trees because the seedlings can’t grow in shade. These trees were harvested as rot-resistant timber by colonists, leading to extensive deforestation on the cape.

More geology from my walk along the bluffs at Barnum Point on Camano Island. Classic glacial sequence in this region displayed in the bluff with advance outwash sand mantled by till from the ice sheet advance of the Vashon stade, i.e. the Puget Lobe. Outwash dated to estimated 18 to 20 ka. Till from about 18 ka to about 13.5 ka. Ref. Geologic map of the Juniper Beach 7.5-minute quadrangle, WDGER Geologic Map GM70.

Paleomagnetism aids research on the Northern Hemisphere Glaciation
[the_ad id="30587"]

A small piece of Pacific Ocean floor, brought up 10 years ago by a Chinese research vessel from a depth of 16,500 feet and 2,700 miles from the San Francisco coast, has a large story to tell.

Researchers say a one-fifth-inch slice...

A full on lineup here at the Indian & Southern Ocean (paleo)circulation session in S403b. First, Jim Wright provides a fresh (first?) look into Argentine drift sediments and the insights they hold regarding Neogene glaciation.

Now: Liz Sykes talks about the history of δ¹³C in the southeastern Indian Ocean and its implications for deglacial carbon change.
