ICDP - Science Advisory Group Field Trip to Idaho to survey Project Hotspot. The SAG team visits Clearlake Grade (a beautiful enormous road cut through SRP basalts), the Snake River Canyon below Perrine Bridge (the most spectacular exposure of SRP Stratigraphy in southern Idaho), and the Kimberly drill site. Rig is still down for repairs, but that doesn’t slow us down. Thanks to Steve Hickman for the photos. Progress continues in the USU core lab.
