Our second field trip for this unit was to the Natural History Museum of Utah. There was a lot there having to do with weathering and erosion, including an up close view of a glacier-carved valley right outside the window.
The kids couldn't get enough of the water erosion table.
We were also all very fascinated with the wind tunnel that continuously whipped sand and formed and reformed sand dunes.
The interactive model of Lake Bonneville over the years was good to see, too, since we always hear and read so much about it in many studies.
There was much more there that we enjoyed, and these were just a few of the geological exhibits to partake of.
