15 Minutes: Geology of National Parks

It was a whirlwind tour, eleven National Parks in just 19 days. Thirteen students from Penn State’s College of Earth and Mineral Sciences, their professors and instructors camped, hiked, filmed, and traveled together to tour through the national parks around the Colorado Plateau.
