Death Valley National Park
Virtual Geology Field Trip
This field trip will take you to just a few of Death Valley's geological wonders. Most of the sites you'll see are right off the highway, but we've included a few side trips that take you off the beaten path. If you plan on visiting the park in person, you'll be interested in the "If you're going" link at the bottom of each page.
Traveling through time
We've arranged the field trip stops so that you can travel through
1.7 billion years of time. The menu below lists the oldest features and
rocks first, with younger rocks and features following. You may also
navigate by using the clickable map link at
the top of each page. Are you ready to hit the road? |
