Field Trip Details
The Oklahoma Geological Survey is coordinating a field trip led by Geology Professors from OU (Dr. Shannon Dulin), OSU (Dr. Brandon Spencer), and MSU (Dr. Jonathan Price).
Transportation:
We will depart from Norman in the morning in OU vehicles, spend the day in the Wichita Mountains region, and return to Norman at the end of the day. You will be able to park your vehicle in our OU Faculty/Staff lot for the day.
Length:
This is a one-day trip. There are two days you can choose from - choose one date (the trip will be the same each day).
- Tuesday, November 14, 2023
- Wednesday, November 15, 2023
We will depart from Norman, OK around 8:00am, and return to Norman by approximately 6:00pm each day.
Registration:
You must be 18+ to register. We are limiting the number of participants to 20 people each day. Once the trip is filled, we'll start a waiting list in case of individual cancellations.
If there is still a space available for you, we will email you within 48 hours to confirm and ask you to complete payment information to secure your spot on the trip. Until you complete payment, your spot will not be reserved, even if you have completed this registration form.
If there is no longer an available space, we will add you to the waiting list and let you know your position on that list. Should a spot become available, you'll be contacted to find out if you're still interested and at that time, you'll be asked to complete payment information to secure your spot.
What to Expect:
There is light hiking and minimal climbing (not strenuous) involved in this field trip. Sturdy hiking boots with ankle support is recommended. A more-detailed list of items to bring will be sent at a later date to those who register to ensure you're prepared for the day.
Cancellation Policy:
If you need to cancel your registration, you may do so up to 21 days prior to the field trip date for a full refund minus $30.
