We spent one week staying at Hosteria Alemana near the equator and at Tambopaxi lodge near Cotopaxi volcano. Then we moved out to the islands of Santa Cruz and Isabela for two weeks of study. In 2014 there were 12 students, one TA, and me. We had help again from Bernardo and Raul.
A student made this fun slide show video of the trip as well:
This was my first study abroad program with BGSU. There were 8 students from both the BG campus and the Firelands college, ranging from Freshmen to Seniors geology majors and non-geology majors.
We were also accompanied by Michael Collier who was working for Pearson HigherEd to make this educational video about Iceland geology.
This was the first year of the Galapagos Volcanology Field Camp. There were only 5 students, but the trip was a success. One week in Ecuador (we got to watch Tungurahua erupt) and two weeks in the islands.
The Ohio State University geology field camp takes place each summer based in Ephraim, UT. Ephraim is a small town in the San Pete Valley in central Utah. Great geology all around.
