This special field study class will be held October 28-30 and the $325 fee includes lodging and food!
The Mojave National Preserve encompasses a region of remarkable landscape diversity, which results in a diverse flora and fauna unsurpassed elsewhere in the Mojave Desert. You will:
* Explore the plant and animal communities along the way to Copper World Mine in Clark Mountain
* En route to the Cow Cove petroglyph site, travel through a portion of the world's largest Joshua Tree forest flanking the famous Cima Dome
* Travel past the Cima Volcanic Field, where the Mojave ecosystem gives way to an island of Great Basin Desert at about 5,000 feet
* Cross the divide between the Great Basin of North America and the Colorado River drainage, to the eerily eroded rocks of Hole-in-the-Wall
* Descend the ""Rings Trail"" of Banshee canyon to the bottom of this unique volcanic formation
* Have a guided tour of the Mitchell Caverns in the majestic Providence Mountains
