" Exploring Iceland's Geological Wonders: From a Regional Perspective to a Hiking Expedition "

Speakers: Don Barrie & William Buckley

For the May Meeting, we return to the Catalina Room at Marina Village, for the speaking duo of Don Barrie & Will Buckley to detail their overland trek of Iceland and the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. This will be more than a mere travelogue as they will take you on their cross-country hiking expedition for a close up look at the still-erupting tectonic plate boundary and discuss Iceland's unique geology in detail. Please join us at the Walawender Bar, and enjoy this exciting presentation.
