Roxi Farwell, NPS Transport your students to the deep seafloor as they explore the mysterious radiolarian ribbon chert of the Franciscan Complex.

Students utilize skills acquired in the classroom to analyze the park landscapes, discover ancient environments and climate, and propose how, when and where human history and geology interact.
