SUMMARY:Fossils of the Marble Mountains Field Experience
DESCRIPTION:The Marble Mountains are a relatively small mountain range loca
 ted in one of the harshest and driest regions of the Mojave Desert in sout
 heastern California\, near the towns of Chambless and Cadiz. The area is e
 specially significant to paleontologists due to its rich Cambrian fossil r
 ecord dominated by trilobites — one of the earliest known groups of arth
 ropods. Participants will explore the geology and paleontology of this rem
 ote desert landscape while learning about the ancient environments that on
 ce existed in the Mojave millions of years ago. This immersive field exper
 ience provides an opportunity to closely observe fossil-bearing formations
  and gain a deeper understanding of Cambrian life and desert geology in th
 e field.\n\nThis class takes place in the Marble Mountains of the Mojave D
 esert.\n\nAnyone may attend! No expertise or experience is required.\n\nEn
 try to Joshua Tree National Park is not needed for this program.\n\nNo mea

 exploration. Off trail\, participants may encounter areas of uneven\, rock
 y\, or sandy terrain. Elevation gains of up to 500 feet are possible. This
  class takes place in a remote desert environment with extended exposure t
 o sun and rugged terrain. Participants should be prepared for a full day o
 utdoors in variable desert conditions with little to no cell phone service
 .\n\nRequired Items:\n\nWater (a minimum of 4 liters per person)\n\nApprop
